My original dash face was warped badly when I disassembled.
I can't seem to find a NOS replacement piece. (unless someone else knows). If you have a file, can you shoot me a PM. (I can always draw it out in CAD, but why recreate the wheel). I'm thinking about having a custom insert cut out of aluminum, brushed steel, or black anodized aluminum... I know there are places that make carbon fiber and stuff, but I may add/remove various switches and items. Thanks, Q |

I made my aluminum dash using the old wood dash pieces that I pulled off my car.
What year car do you have? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/img820.imageshack.us-11125-1334793877.1.jpg) |

Not sure if anyone already makes these...but Id like the dash face and center console made from thin gauge metal...suitable to cover in "carbon fiber look" vinyl. I have a dash bezel already covered and Im trying to match it to the dash and center console...
Thanks, Steve |

Just buy one of the cheap kits out there and wrap it with the vinyl of your choice.
