I guess this would be my first post after lurking here for some time. I'm looking at making a DIY setup for recreating bodypanels, and making a custom tail section. I'm going to be using ABS for the body panels, and then Acrylic to make a new tail light, and considering all the other options, this seems to be the most cost effective versus trying other methods with which I have no experience.
I was curious if anyone else had some experience doing this, or had any suggestions. At first I wanted to used PC to make the body panels just so I could rattle can the underside, but still acheive a beautiful, scratch resistant glossy finish. I'm reluctant to do this because I'm unaware of how PC will fair with sunlight and the heat.
