-- Material for Guage panel and Radio - Blk plastic, CF, polished Al??

Since all of my guages are getting replaced with autometer ones I need to fab up a new panel for them and maybe my Radio Delete panel if I decide to get rid of it. So Ive been looking around and seen guys who did them a buch of ways, either using black abs plastic which matches the plastic oem panels in the car, Carbon Fiber since I have a few rolls of it and the hardner, or polished sheet metal, which I think would look the best.

If any of you guys have done this pleas post up some pics so I can get a few more Ideas but which do you all like.

Have you ever seen perforated metal. You might check into using that to make your panels. I have been thinking about doing mine in my 69 mustang out of this with a subtle backlighting.

If you search on google you can get some ideas of differant styles that are available.
