In the rear I'm going to use 2 straps on the outside. For fastening, I'm going to use 10-32 nutserts with buttonhead cap screws to keep it smooth (not countersunk). I'm going to use black R/C paint on the inside. The only thing I haven't figured out yet is how I am going to seal the lexan? I've got a few ideas, but still not sure yet.

Anybody have any ideas? I hit up Lowes, HD, True-Value, and the large private owned shop that has a warehouse full of materials. It's 1" x 1/8" x 96". Where can I find it? Online is cool too.
