The problem is the tabs cant easily or cheaply be cut on a CNC machine, so thats another reason i chose plastic.

You might be able to get a aluminum vinyl sheet and make it look like alu.

unless i cant find the same material they use with the OEM kits and wrap it? might be hard but would be an interesting project

ah ok, i wonder how hard it would be to hit the curves on the kit you made, ill have to track some down and try it

very good question, that would look sick with our brushed aluminum dash kits, but man would that be hard... might just have to settle for black lol
