1/4"-1/2" would work good. anything less would crack. just dont tighted the screws too tight when you install the plexiglass. you dont wanna crack it!

id go with 1/4 or 3/8. i did this a while ago when i first started building boxes, but only used 1/8. bad idea. first i cracked it by over-tightening a couple screws. then the bass made it flex and made it worse. within three days it looked like sh*t and i had to yank it out and build a new one.
