Cheers mate

Didnt happen
Was meant to pick up on sat &it had developed a misfire that morining on testride, turned out to be the wiring when they fitted oil pressure switch. Also had a seized caliper.

Gutted, really wanted to see it's potential (i'll prob get caught doin 170 on m4 now )

Oh well always the next one

A patterned Alloy dash or a Brushed Stainless Steel dash were available as an optional extra from the factory at a cost of 300 quid each.I have the brushed SS one (like the one above) not sure what the alloy one looks like. Does seem a bit dear for a piece of metal with 9 holes drilled in it.

You can get a selection from Leven technologies...

there are 'fit-able' - though they do not come with the mounted threads...and you have to play around with the dash electrics...which is NOT nice.

Especially when you have to fit the oil/water tmp gauge...which is only disconnectable from the front of the engine bay...

...haven't done mine yet.

But FYI it cost c. £120 as I recall...

Toady : If I don't get my parts for my car in the next couple of days I'll send you mine mate with the heater Dial surround.... the dash is already in pieces so it's no hardship D

We can offer a Stainless Steel dash with a pattern that looks like a metal version of the Carbon Fibre. Unfortunatly I do not have a picture installed to hand. To see the material look at our Chimaera photo on the web site (or e-mail direct and we will send a better/clearer version). Price for set of both main panel and switch panel is £120 inc VAT
