hey ive been doing some searching but not turning up anything i can really use. i want to mount some switches in my 94 z28. i wanted to make something to cover up the console storage compartment so i could make some sort of panel where switches could be mounted. i have seen pictures of some people's setups but have no idea as to how i could even start a project like this. anyone do something similar? any ideas? i want it to look clean almost as if it came from the factory. thanks and any help would be greatly appreciated.

The ones you saw were from rlsport but they were discontinued awhile back. The only choice you have is to get either a sheet of plexiglass or stainless steel and make your own panel.

Making your own isn't that hard just take your time. I made like 5 for one of my friends. he kept changing his mind on where he wanted his gauges...

 

hey thanks a lot for the reply. actually i am in mid process of fitting the plexiglass right now...kinda odd that i would read the post right after i bought all the supplies. i also got some black paint for plastic that i was going to spray it with. after that if i like how it fits there is some carbon fiber look a like adhesive (seems basically like contact paper to me) that i might cover it with. if that works out im going to "carbon fiber" the reducer plate for my cd player too so it at least matches something. i was planning on making the panel cover the entire front of the lower console...from the cigarette lighter to the end of the storage/tape compartment. hopefully it works out. if so perhaps ill post some pictures. thanks again for the reply.

 

No problem, by the way I also used the carbon fiber look vinyl on my radio bezel Just contact brent from this website http://www.bfranker.badz28.com/vinyl/vinyl.htm he more than likely can get you a better deal on the vinyl than anywhere else.

 

wow i was wondering where people get their carbon fiber badges thanks a lot.
