If you're going to cover it with plexi/lexan, I'd print it at home on heavyweight paper and then have it laminated.

Just scale the graphics to the size of your CP. Depending on the format it will scale good or bad.. I would just print it out on an Ink Jet printer or have a local copy/print shop do it. Rough up the CP top with some sand paper then clean with a damp cloth. Spray with some 3M 77 - or something similiar and lay down the arwork. Putting on the Pexi overlay will protect it.
