Type of plastic used for dash infront of gauges

I have been trying to find out what type of plastic is used on the 3rd gen camaro's for the dash pieces. Specifically, the piece in front of the gauges.
Are they ABS, PVC, LDPE, HDPE, UHMW, Nylon, or something else.
I wanted to thermal form a custom dash for my '88 but don't want to use the wrong plastic and have it melt in the summer heat. I would like to also make the entire dash custom without seems but my machine is only around a 2 foot by 4 foot in size so I can't. Bummer.
If anyone knows what typs of plastic is used, or knows where I can find some info on it, please let me know.
Thanks for the input.
I looked around for some samples and found a lot of people are using ABS (Acrylonitrile-Butadine-Styrene)
Some dash makers are charging 1,200% markup for camaro dashes!
Thats funny. If only people knew...
