If using paypal you must make a $10+ order. I bought from them and had no troubles.

0.30 inch? do you know how thick that will be??
I think you mean .030 inch, that should be fine:)
Depends what you want to do though.....
.5mm is probably better if you intend on doing curves and things.

Let me guess, you are going to try to make that car in your sig.
Let me guess again, that car in your sig is a trueno. Make a street version since I do not know where you are going to get the decals unless you're going to make them.

Just don't go .005 for building kits. It is thin enough, but its as bendable as high quality computer paper. I found some people use it for decals or to increase realism of the interior. I have 3 packets of it since I made the mistake :( and I wanted it for kits.

Your gonna use styrene for a bodykit? I've heard using styrene for fabricating parts, but i never heard using it for bodykits. Im using bondo for my teg right now....a big pain. Ill talk to you on AIM about using styrene for a body kit.

Mike, there have been several threads here on how to make bodykits. Try to search for them (just woke up so too lazy to look for them at the moment) ;)
