    Where do you guys buy your plexi? I have checked home depot, and all they had was this thin stuff that was too flexible for what i want to do. Also, how do you get it in such weird colors? I am at a total loss about this, all I can find is generic, clear stuff. I want to build a door for the front panel of my Lian Li PC60, and I would like a blackish-grey tint to cover my drives.

    Thanks for the help.

    Sears took care of all my plexi needs. If you want it tinted you can get that from some modding site, directron.com, or frozencpu.com prolly has some.

    *goes to check out delvies plastics*

    Actually, you could get tint from Wal-Mart or something, and tint the plexi yourself. It'd probably be cheaper.
