Home Depot, Lowes, Menards.

Haven't seen carbon fiber, but Google WilsonArt.  I seem to remember them having a few funky patterns they sold, but I'm betting it's gonna be such a high dollar special order that you'll quickly ditch the idea.

Just go to any kitchen countertop shop in your area.  Heck many times these guys have 1/2 a 12' sheet lying arround and it will be cheaper than home depot.

Good Luck

I called Wilsonart and asked for the name of a local distributor.

When I called them up, they said I could buy my laminate for $28 per 4x8 sheet... IF I met a 10 sheet minimum order.

I went in with a friend who was also building a cab;  we bought 12 sheets together.

This was about $20 less per sheet than Home Depot or Lowes.
