IMO something else that looks out of place is the white plastic compass on the silver dash. I added a chrome bezel and used white Fusion paint on plastic since the white plastic was beginning to yellow. I would think a chrome or polished bezel with a matching silver plastic housing would look much better.

The Ritchie compass is not plastic. It is powder coated aluminum. It comes in black or white.

Bondo: If you're interested, my 382 will go on the market this fall. RT930Turbo is first on the list at the moment, but I am open to bidding wars.

Mine is the Ritchie SS1002W and it is plastic. So I guess the SS5000W is aluminum. Polished or powder coated a different color would look better IMHO.
