i'm having a hell of a time trying to find a place to purchase some grey-tinted plexi for my screen cover/bezel here in St. Louis, MO. All of the home-stores just have the clear stuff.
anyone ever ordered pre-cut tinted plexi online or anyone in st. louis ACTUALLY PURCHASED cut plexi locally?
if so, where?

Mameroom designs offers pre-cut grey tinted (1/8" thick) plexiglas for our UAII cabinets. We could possibly custom cut a sheet for you. Please email sales@mameroom.com with the exact dimensions for a price.

This is for a UAII cabinet. I just purchased a UAII kit from you guys a couple weeks ago. I don't know/think that was available then and your new site says something about only ordering them with cabinets. I'll send you an email.

Look up a custom "sign" shop in your area. One that does formed plastics, plexi etching, etc. (not a vinyl sign shop) Maybe an acrylic fabricator of some sort.
They may have a selection of the grey tented stuff you're looking for.
Probably cheaper than HD or Lowes type places anyways.

St. Louis sucks for getting plexi-glass cut. I had some old drug addict at a Home Depot that kept messing up the cuts and trying to make me buy the stuff anyway. I honestly felt we were about 2 or 3 more tense words away from a fist fight.
My advice? Move as far away from St. Louis as you possibly can.
They're still sending me tax bills, I'm still coolly disregarding them.
I always had mine ordered to size from Martin Glass, Co.
You'll have to venture into Illinois, but like most things in Missouri - it's better in Illinois.
