So here is the issue i am having .
I custom built a turtle deck for my T out of fiberglass . I cut the deck lid out and began to build the inside of the trunk. after some time went on i placed the cut out lid into the deck , and it was warped out of shape! it was on a flat surface and was left alone but now its not going to fit.
Idea #1 was to cut another one out of wood and glass it, and hope that the edges of the lid seal up properly .and pray it does not warp ...
or
Idea #2 cut a lid out of metal and slap it in there.
not knowing if anyone has tried this metal idea before ....but it seems like its a better option if it works.
but i do know metal and glass expand and contract at different temps, my fear is lid getting stuck in hot or cold weather . if this is even a valid fear .
any other ideas or feedback on this issue would be a great help !
