I actually did a couple of custom cards and coin inserts for my Simpsons on regular printer paper with my colour laser and they look OK.  I may redo them on the SEF cardstock once the printer at work is back up and running.

really though, do you stare at the insert cards while you play?    ... I'm sure you probably could and still beat my score, Adam.

I print them off on my laser printer (custom colour cards that is) on std. photostock card that you can buy from staples.  I then mylar over the top of the card... it gives them stronger durability and also gives that "wet ink" look - very sharp and crisp images/colours.

Without the mylar, it looks flat to me.

I typically buy a 3-4 foot sheet of Mylar from pinball resource when I make an order (so I always have a bit on hand).  Mylar is very cheap... about $1 a foot (or so).
