Hmm...I want blue but will it work for a 32? My gauge placement is not what I want currently. Any pics?



Ouch! That is ridiculous for a piece of metal with some holes cut and simple one coler silk screening!



Iv'e heard that before and emailed him a week ago and no response....?? I don't need any fancy material just a newer style gauge layout and for it to be blue with white or silver screening. I guess he's either too busy to respond or my project isn't fancy enough lol
Don't be discouraged with him. This time of year is incredibly busy for him. He makes a lot of the carbon fibre dashes for boat manunfacturers and the 2 months leading up to the Miami boat show he's running flat out to get them all what they want for the show. Just keep trying.. he does great work and is a pleasure to deal with.

If you are just looking for panels - the folks at New Wire Marine (Charleston) can fab some up as well out of lots of different material. They can also change the layout to your spec if so desired, add backlighting, etc. http://newwiremarine.com/ also on facebook.

I had them redo 3 panels for a donzi, and a friend has his main gauge panel being redone for a fountain right now.

That makes sense I will give him a chance to respond. Nobody has ever mentioned what he charges... any ideas on price ranges?

Do they do screening also? Any info on what they are charging him for his Fountain?

If you're only talking about the coloured dash panels for the instrument panels, I replaced all the panels on my 34 cc with Livorsi panels last year. They have the patterns for most popular makes and models.
All cut and labelled correctly, perfect fit and look great. They even organised freight for me. (I am in Thailand) It will take you a while to fit with so many gauges and switches, just make sure you do a sensational job of labelling everything you disconnect and take your time.

Can't speak highly enough of them.

1300 USD plus freight.
My panels are silver carbon fibre. Price was for a full set which means 5 panels. Gauges, accessory switches, tabs/drive switches, glove compartment lid and battery selector switches. You can order individual panels but I needed the full set 'cos I was replacing the old white powder coated ones.

Sounds like that may not be bad if I only need the one panel and not carbon fibre! I'll have to give them a call and see what they say. Thanks!
