Hi I'm in a middle of my autocross S13 project, I'm gonna take out both door panels and put some flat sheet to cover it instead (little weight saving).I was going to buy carbon fiber but you know it will cost 240 dollar to finish eash side. So i'm looking some other material that satisfy these...t)Heat resistance (not really importangElectrical Resistance (like regular plastic. So i don't get elec shock)High Impact Strengtheasy to cut

I found a company that sell lots of laminates but i don't know what to get.Which material would be ideal for my project?

here's the list. I'm thinking of getting ABS because that's all i know LOL.also Poly Vinyl Chloride

I would use ABS or vinyl. They can both take a lot of abuse.
