Revvin, you just need to make your own damnit. Don't be so friggin lazy

In all honesty I think that dash would look pretty decent.

My dash is out. I have throw out all the HVAC systems, and I play on running an lcd dash that runs off the e6k. The stock dash is really heavy and all my vents are broken

. I think this looks pretty cool, and I like how it curves. The lcd could go there nicely..

i figured fiberglass would be pretty light and ideal, because everyone was commenting on the aesthetics of the dash. the sheet metal would definitely be the best bet, functionally. I just thought that he could build whatever sort of dash he wanted out of fiberglass, aesthetically pleasing and functional

What about something like this? This is a fabcar though... That LSD display is all you'd need for a dash.

That would be a damned sexy dash, if it looked alittle more livable outside the track.

yeah very cool, i like the bend so you have easy access to everything. The first dash is a little more visually pleasing. regardless it would be a challenge to fab your own dash. A lot of time would have to be invested in something like that.
