painted dash panels?
Has anyone had new gauge panels made and had them painted? I had seen a few pictures of boats that had really awesome paintjobs on their dash panels and I knew one guy had mitcherT do his.. Any idea on what kinda cost that is to have something done like that?

Yup, about that much. What was real nice was Mitcher T relabled all my switches after painting. My switches are just white and I was afraid I would loose the lables. No worries. He matched the boats graphics.
Before, after, and panels alone.

Just did this one last week, nothin fancy. I made a template and taped it to a sheet of 1/8" aluminum, and had it cut with a CNC waterjet, sanded with 80 grit, shot it with epoxy primer, then paint of your choice. I've got about $50 in it.
