Dude?!?! Really?!?! Why blast a kid for asking a simple question. Maybe by posting this question on the forum this kid might be able to find a brother XJer that had some or knew somebody who had some extra sheet metal laying around taking up room in their gargae and would sell it to him for cheaper than the local steel place. Are you always this angry when anybody asks a question near you. He didn't even ask the question to you personally.

Hey 88, he was right about using a Google search. I found 10 different places that sell sheet metal in Chehalis alone on Google. That's not even counting places in Centralia, Olympia, Long View and Kelso if want to go looking for better prices. Good hunting....and hey, Chehalis is my home town. I visit family and shop in that area a lot for parts for my own Jeep. Post on this thread or PM me (BuckB91XJ) if you find a place in the local area that has awesome prices on steel.
