Have you seen the dashes PeteGriff produces? Quality.
I haven’t no. Are they machined stainless?Very clever design for the switches/warning light panel that properly secures it rather than relying on glue. There's a thread on here somewhere but I'm f'd if I can find it.

I thought there was another one, but maybe not.

Half way there. Ally is a good compromise though. I was thinking stainless as a totally maintenance free finish
There is a clear lacquer coat (from memory), so virtually maintenance-free.The other options are hydo dipped or even a leather clad dash panel, it needs a flexible finish rather than something that can split. The Bertram Hill stainless version as shown by the previous link would in my eyes be perfect but I don’t think they are available off the shelf so to speak.
Act do a carbon fibre dash panel which again is stuck to the original mild steel sheet. Not sure if that would delaminate with a few hot and cold temperature cycles?
Hmmmm thinking cap is on..........

The Bertram Hill one was bought from someone ( garage owner ?) in the Bristol area who had made a batch of them, sorry cannot recall who it was but maybe a West country owner will know the source..........
