Re: Help with armour
What sort of Dexterity modifier are you working with?

Re: Help with armour
Darkleaf (A&EG, Eberron Campaign Setting) is cheaper than mithral.
200 GP, Breastplate
150 GP, Masterwork
2250 GP, Darkleaf
1000 GP, +1 enhancement
3600 GP Total.
Consider adding:
2000 GP, Lesser Rubicund Frenzy (MIC)
1470 GP, +1 Dwarven Buckler Axe
2500 GP, Lesser Crystal of Arrow Deflection (MIC)
+1 chain shirt + dastana + chahar-aina (Oriental Adventures) gives you a better total armor bonus (+7 instead of +6), but some DMs get twitchy about stacking both the dastana and chahar-aina on top of each other.Handbooks:
Shax's Indispensable Haversack, TWF OffHandbook
Builds:
Archon of Nine, Jellobomber, King of Pong, Lightning Thief
Spells:
Druidzilla, Healbot, Gish

Re: Help with armour
If really wanting to max out your AC bonus with your available money (and not trying to stack the reasonably obscure slotless AC items) your best option would be +1 Mithril Fullplate. That would be a 20 AC with just that and your Dex mod. Thats not outstanding AC, but with an already high CON you should be fine. If you don't want to lower your movement rate, feel free to go with something lighter.
