Metal Dashboard...

I am looking to find a metal racing like dashboard for my 4Runner... My current dash is kinda beat up, and I would love to be able to get what gauges I needed and wire it up how I would like to have it, since I am already basically rewiring my 4Runner as is....

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

How are your fab skills? You should make one out of aluminum sheet! like the buggy guys and have something that you can say(yeah I made that)!

that was quick this is what I was talking about, but they aren't metal: http://www.mcneilracinginc.com/off-r...shes/index.htm

two styles both can be had in fiberglass or carbon fiber:

heh I didn't say they looked good, especaially the T-style. The OEM style isn't that bad, but I think the layout of his gauges/etc makes it look odd.
