give lincoln at lwm panels in echuca a call, he does custom jobs from all over vic and nsw and is an absolte perfectionist. his prices are not over the top either. if you dont mind travelling to get a good job he is your man. his ph no is 0354825300 or 0418579087 he has done work for me so i can personally reccomend his work, and he only operates from referals (always busy) well worth the travel. if youdo call him tell him the guy wih the kashmir territory sent you. cheers.. james...

Thanks .
I change my idea a little instead of splice two tubs together to make up the length of the tray . I just gonna shorten the tray to sit on the cut tub .
I tell you i wish i never sold my tub .
Also i would not need to anything if the fella that made the tray did a desent job.
Have a look at the wheel arches on the top photo way out of centre and the whole powder coat is peeling and really rusty.
Its only 18 months old tops to. Quality work is hard to find

yeah its somthing that most tray builders seem to suffer from, they simply dont do any prep work before sending to the painters/powdercoaters, they also seem to suck at color matching.
