skinnykid racecars fiberglass dash?
Anyone have experience with this dash?

it looks like a well made piece and would be perfect for custom guages and switch panels. Just wondering about fitment issues or anything like that. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I'm sure there would be minor fitment trimmings required. It's definitely a weight savings. And if you can't source the ever so sought after black dash, it's not that expensive of an alternative if you think about it. And you can just cut and add to it as needed (radio, gauges, toggles, etc)... I'll have to reconsider this when I get to finishing my interior... Hell I've even got an OEM Pony Logo to put on the passenger's side

the weight savings would be nice and I also want to build a custom guage panel as well as a switch panel. I have a black dash now. I wont have a/c, heater, radio, or anything else in the car so this looks like it will be good for me in the direction I want to go. I'll have to give them a call on it. If it bolts to the factory location this will probably work for me. I just dont want to be custom building bracket to make it fit. I tried searching corral.net but couldnt really find anything searching and for some reason my account was never setup to post so I cant post on there.

Seems like about the same route as me bud. I've already gutted the heat, a/c, radio, etc - and have no plans on returning any of it (yet). If anything an MP3 Player and a single sub w/some door speakers... Lol. But the heater core is gone, and hell so is everything else in the car for that matter!
But it's really not that expensive when you consider just buying a Gauge Cluster is around $150 +/- from Florida 5.0...

Dont have one yet but I will be buying it. I like that and I will let you know if it goes in good or not. I am great with fiberglass so if I need to add some to it I will keep you updated.
