I'd like to cut a couple of CGB lenses. Whit kind of plastic is the best for the task?
Update:
I'm asking because I need clear lenses. I do not want standard ones since I'd like to customize them myself.

Just buy the replacemnt ones.
Do you happen to know where do I get clear ones? Without black-ish frame and letters 'GameBoy Color?
This one doesn't have the logo, but still has the border/frame coloring:

OP is looking for them for the game boy COLOR. Thread title might be a bit misleading.
oh, haha, oops
i'm going to update the thread title just a touch 
If anyone would know what material and what thickness they are, Kitsch should. 
Home improvement store! You can buy thin squares of plexiglass. I used to make my own screen covers and paint the back and such(before all these fancy clear ones came out). I can't remember the exact thickness but bring your old screen cover with you and compare it. Works great if you have a steady cutting technique!
