But 300 of the 20,000mcd units in a limited space are going to put out a fair amount of heat. Excessive heat can dramatically reduce the life of the LED, thus I definitely want a material that will wick the heat away.

I think the best way would be a small fan to blow accross the aray and remove heat from under the hood. a heat sink on plastic isn't going to do anything realy as the plastic is an insulator.
on another note where is the pics of your creation?
