Try ESP Plastics - they do some fairly reasonable prices, though I don't know what the quality of the material is like (some CF effect can be pretty poor)

Picked up some samples of the ESP Plastics sheet from a mate yesterday in my opinion it looks very good better than i thought it would!
So the ESP stuff gets my vote i will be ordering some soon!

Sorry to add to this post but which of ESPs thicknesses would be suitable for making boot panels from, 2.5mm or 4mm?

Cheers, Rich

I would go 4mm, the 2.5mm would probably sag.

europa spares did or usedto do some carbon fibre matt stuff that you glue on and do some other stuff so it ends up looking like solid carbon fiber as oppoe to some black plastic with little silver rectangles printed on it.
