The veneer is very thin. It will bend around very easily. In fact it was shipped rolled up. The side of that cabinet seems flat top to bottom, and curved front to back (if that makes sense to you) should be a piece of cake as long as you can cut it to an exact fit. I have a Rockwell Sonicrafter tool and the scissors attachment, I think it's called a Sonishear, does an excellent job of cutting veneer cleanly and easily.
