Greg .. The company that I got my GRP from do some paneling made of recycled plastic .. It's Megga tough and very light .. In fact if I'd have seen that before ordering my panels I may of gone that route as the GPR panels are heavier than I expected G4 Gone ...but not forgotten

Floor ...
Got the floor down , made some mounting holes .. cut out the wheel arches and water pipe entrance hole
Cut a bit of the extrusions .. But I'm still unsure of the storage area size in the middle .. Tommorow I will have to decide !!
