Remember when I made a new panel for my Griff and then offered to get more made.

Quite a few of you guys,now have them fitted.Well a guy at work one of his friends has started an engraving business.

So heres the question if I tried again to get these made to our/my standards would anyone be interested?

Obviously need a few people to make it viable for the engraver.

OH BY THE WAY HOW IS EVERYONE BEEN A LONG TIME!biggrin

Hi Guys

Just got two samples today,not quite happy with the symbols so will have to make alterations.

Can someone please measure the opening where the panel fits,(accurately please)so as I can get the panels to fit snuggly.

Many Thanks

Hi All

Thanks for the measurements,will have them made a little larger as per suggestion(thanks Paul hope your well thumbup)

Now for the painful bit,there will have to be a price increase because of material costs the new price will be £25.50 from the new supplier.If this is too pricey for some of you please let me know so I know how many to order.

Thanks
G.M

Thanks for posting the picture thumbup

OK lets get things sorted out,as you can see the panel has been made slightly oversize so that it can be trimmed to suit you dash opening (as TVR sizes vary).

Please PM me if your happy to trim to size (only a few mm from smallest to largest opening,radius corners to suit)) and I will send you the payment details etc.

I will endeavour to keep to send to first posted etc.

G.M

P.S No problem with making more as required.

Hope your all HAPPY with them smile

A fine file and then finish off with a stanley knife blade held in both hands and scrape along 90 degrees to the edge if that makes sense.Price at beginning of topic.
