Happy with the acrylic sheets
I ordered two products, with specific measurements, the larger of the two was perfect, the smaller size was 2mm smaller in one direction, so it didn't fully cover the area I needed to, but I can adapt that, so not a huge problem. And, I can see that there is a possibility that a cutting service can be 2-3 mm out. Ironically 2 mm bigger would have been better. But I am happy with both products.

Perfect, everything fitted like a glove and some good ideas on the website. I would advise to pay the extra and have your wood primed, its well worth it. Once its all fitted its ready to paint.
