Laminate wood

I am wondering if I am able to get the wood style laminate for the shelves I have made for the cabinets.
I have a 19' bambi safari 2005.
I am just wanting to match the cabinets to make it look a bit nicer than the way it looks now.
Would I be able to get the parts from Airstream or could I go to a local hardware store.Thanks

Wow, I'm exposing just how cheap I am, but can you reuse the laminate inside the closet doors? Do they really need to match the exterior?

Wood

I just want to match it up with the wood as much as possible to make it look nice.If I could I would take it to Airstream and let them put some shelves in so it would match perfectly.With all that space I dont see why they dont put these things in anyway.It would make for much more organization.Then again they are probably looking at weight also.

Laminate....

I believe you could go to Home Depot (or look up either a Formica dealer or a Wilsonart dealer) and find laminate to match. I'm assuming you made shelves already and need to laminate them? Airstream uses a wood called "liteply" - I did find one dealer that sells it close to me in Downtown Seattle. It is apparently lighter then regular ply (and MUCH lighter than particle board).

You could just use white laminate (or paint) that would go fine inside a cabinet too.

Shelves

Yea I already made the shelves and these are pretty light also.I have already painted them white but I just mostly want it for the trim.I dont really need that much laminate.The shelves will stay white though.I will post some pics as soon as I can to show what I have done so far.

Try contacting customer service at the factory. They've been very helpful in providing some different trims, etc. I was at the factory last week picking up my trailer and they gave me a 30" x 30" piece of the black maple laminate used in my trailer.
