Hi,
My back panels on an Ifor Williams 505 trailer need replacing, age has caused the back panel to start weakening and has bowed. I was looking into replacement panels but the cost and wait time from an Ifor Williams dealer is really off putting using the same from them again. I was at my brother's work the other day, he is an engineer and one of his projects at the moment and he had a block (length of a side panel and 60cm wide) of fibreglass made and in a specific colour as they put the colour in when mixing. It's solid and strong. It got me thinking has anyone ever replaced the panels of an ifor William with another material or using material not from them?
What did you use and how did you do it!?
