View Full Version : Where to buy large ABS plastic in NC? dbbmwm3 11-01-2005, 10:20 PM I want to fabricate a new front splitter out of ABS plastic for my '99 E36 M3. It needs to be approximately 56" x 14". I live in Raleigh and would love any suggestions on where to buy a piece that big. Thanks in advance for any/all help. dmwhite 11-02-2005, 10:23 AM i'm curious about where you can get smaller/thinner pieces of abs plastic in the raleigh area...i'm going to need to cover up some holes (where dash vents used to be) during the off season and was thinking of using either abs or thin sheet metal... 155///MPH 11-03-2005, 12:13 AM www.piedmontplastics.com 6720 FLEETWOOD DRIVE P.O.
