Can anyone please point me in the direction of some reasonably priced (cheap) FRP?

I got some of mine from here:

The price for Filon has gone up a lot lately. I paid $4.25/SF for the last batch. I think I paid $1.75/SF when I built the tear.

I don't think I know what nrp is. But it is sounding great.

Check out shower enclosure manufacturers. I got my FRP from a salvage yard that bought out a shower enclosure manufacturer that went out of business. It was 80 inches wide and I got enough to do the outside walls, roof, the inside walls, and floor for 108.00 total.
This was in North Little Rock Arkansas.
