Best place for ABS/Plastic sheet?

Guys,
Thought I'd be better off posting this in bodywork section.

I need some flat ABS (or similar) sheets approx 450 x 450 x 6mm as I want to make some slightly larger side protectors for the wifes wheel chair and I'm not paying north of £150 for them off the manufacturer!

So where's the best (most cost effective!) place to get black (or carbon effect....) sheets from?

Thanks!

would a aluminium-plastic-aluminium laminate be better?

theres loads of sheet sizes on eBay listed under 'dibond'. or a local signmaker may give you an offcut for a few quid.

I used it for loads of panels on Kit, its really easy to work with. lots stiffer than acrylic etc.
