Lexan isn't very hard to find, although you'll probably have better luck looking for polycarbonate(the generic name). McMaster-Carr has it available in various thicknesses and sheet sizes. Part number 8574K63 is a 24" by 48" sheet of 1/16" thick Lexan, that should be enough for your purposes. Alternatively, you could find it in any size and thickness by looking under Raw Materials -> Plastics -> Polycarbonate.

If you don't have the money, try asking some nearby teams if they have any extra they could give you. I know lots of teams have extra hanging around and I'm sure they'd love to help out.
