well, 8 years ago or longer.. I did a buy of a full sheet of it 4' x 10' and it cost me about 200 bucks. that was the only way I could get it on the island and there were several others that wanted to build there own reflectors so it worked out ok. only had about 4 sq ft left over and who knows where that went to.

seeing as your in vancouver you should be able to get it in smaller sizes and cheeper, check with sheet metal places and such..
