Question Styrene sheet ... question

I am finally going to get back into modelling after leaving three models in the works for about two months because my funds ran dry ... So now I want to get into my ITR again.. and I was wondering, What thicknesses of styrene sheet should i use... I need to make side skirts, A trunk and custom sub enclosure, and maybe alter the front and back bumpers a bit.

Could someone please help me out with this... I'm finally getting a paycheck from the new job and want to get this soon.

I personally use 1mm Plaplate styrene when making parts for car bodies. Check out your hobby store, most have lots of unusual parts like H-beams, hex beams and so on for parts that may be hard to fabricate yourself.
