That looks like something I would buy. It would help out us sleepers who don't want anyone to see out gauges hanging off the pillar and knowing we have F/I.

What do you think about $45 for this piece? Its aluminum with the powdercoat. Fit is perfect and match the contour of th nav cubby.

I wouldn't pay $45 unless it was something that was really necessary. $35 seems a little better. :-)

What am I saying...I don't have any use for one anyway! LOL

Would be nice to have one to fit my EDFC unit!

I need a trim piece for my install:

And I'd agree on a price around $30-35, if the fit was nice.

We can send a flat plate, but other than round guages the custom cutting would cause the cost to go up.

so, would the flat plate, without the custom "round" gauge holes cut in it, be cheaper?

Does it come with a turbo? Because that's a really good deal for $45.

I'm interested...I'm sure I can stick some cool looking guages in there for now...or just put a boost guage that always reads zero.

It may be neat, but there is a thread on this. This product is VERY cheap: https://my350z.com/forum/showthread....threadid=95152

Nice, but I think it'd be slightly better if it were angled towards the driver.
