Large metal pano provider

I didn't see that Bay photo could provide the size I need.

I have a client that wants one of my recent pano's in a metal print, 30x84 or as near to that as I can provide.... I was looking at Bay photo and didn't see that they offer that size of monster print... does anybody have tips on where the best place to order this beastly print would be? I plan on encouraging 3 seperate 20x36 prints into a tryptich which would look cool, but want to give them the pricing option of both.

Thanks

    Bay could probably tile it for you?? I know that is not exactly the same as one humongous print but they still look really cool...just a thought.

    Thanks Art, That is what I plan to encourage to the client as I am sure the cost will be less that way and easier on me and still look awesome, but want to quote both in case they insist on one large Pano.

    Bay Photo does custom sized metal prints, no need to tile it.

    Thanks Chris, I missed that... so... that would be about $630 before shipping costs.. can't imagine it'd be cheap to ship a large, long print like that... so... yeah, I can guestimate some pricing based off of that.. at least a few hundred more that the tiled shots...

    Thank you again.

    Weldon Labs in LA would be able to do that for you. It would be more expensive than Bay but their quality is second to none.

    Thanks Fuzz....

    As an update... the client has decided to choose the option of the 3 panel triptych and will be buying three 24x30 metal prints.... it will be less costly for them, easier on me and roughly the same profit.... appreciate all the assistance.
