Default Gauge pods

Is there any company that makes "pods" for the Z's cubby or do I need to make one custom? I see tons of A-pillar, but like many of you all out there would rather be a bit more stealthy about this.

I had one custom made out of carbon fiber by Car V2 in Delaware (www.carv2.com)... Not sure if they would be willing to make one to sell, but you may want to contact them. Their work is absolutly perfect. I will try to take a pic and post it up sometime.

Looks OK except for the fake vinyl stuff behind the gauges.

Could you lay a layer of Carbon fiber over the fiberglass to finish it out or possibly paint it body color to kind of look factory?

How much time and $$ would it take to do a job like this!

YEs i can make MDF like the one pictured ubove for less than 45 dollars. And i can mae fiberglass finished in whatever finish youd like. SO colored to match the car, fabric or even primerd for your to finish. Price would be around 130 bucks. Every one would be custom made for yoru gauges and your configuration.

Here is a pic of my setup, stealthy but you will have to remove the factory gauges...

5 posts and you have the right to come in here and post this BS up to an established member on here! Where is the newb police at when you need them??

What the hell is it with jerk offs coming into this forum and saying **** they know nothing about. You did not put this in your car, you did not see this is person. Untill you get a clue, don't comment on MY setup. The man asked a question about gauge pods, so I showed him mine. Enough said.
