Contact paper on cabinets.
Mario:
Besides the lack of durability others mentioned, the contact paper bubbles up a lot, and peels where it's not held down by other means. Avoid it.

Don:
Although good in theory, contact paper tends to have fugly results. This is mainly as a result of people covering their whole cabs, including the control panel, in that awful marble effect you can get. However using a wood-like design for the side of your cabinet could turn out well, especially if you have good complimentary art on the rest of your cab (marquee, bezel etc.) :)
