Looks pretty good. I would like to see some more pictures when its finished and def from a couple different angles to really see the shape. Is that whole piece carbon fiber? You make it yourself? Only thing im not feeling at this point is the screws on either side. I woulda preferred to use some sort of adhesive. Pretty neat though and make sure to update with some pics!

That is interesting and I'll have to see it when complete but you certainly have a lot of real estate to put some quality stuff in. Is a screen going in the top section?

i would've gotten rid of the oem gauges

props for originality!

Ah, I wasn't sure what you meant by the switches. Is this car a beast at the strip?

remove the drywall screws and finish washers, replace them with a smaller black round head screw.
what are you placing on the left side hole?

nice so far

It definately looks like quality work. I do think it would look better if it were fit a little nicer on the sides and at the top, so that the factory holes weren't exposed as much. I probably wouldn't want it for a daily driver, but it looks good.

im just confused. is this a track car, or street car? i ask because if its a track car, you could have ditched the hvac and mounted your switches in a panel there or in the lower cubby, but if its a street car its beyond overkill. looks like solid work though. i agree about changing the screws
