Black acrylic, carbon fiber, or 1/4 inch black starboard. All will work well.

If you decide to go with carbon fiber make sure it does not touch any aluminum. If the panel is currently screwed in I believe the rivnuts (if applicable) are made of aluminum. This will cause dissimilar metal corrosion. Use stainless steel hardware and if the rivnuts are aluminum I would change them to stainless. I changed mine to stainless on my switch panel.
