CNC or waterjet vendor to make custom dash panel
I pulled out my transmission tunnel over the weekend and want to replace the panel where you normally have the radio with a square of aluminum or steel and have someone cut three holes for gauges as well as some smaller holes to mount electrical switch, starter button, etc.
Anyone know a vendor who does this sort of work without breaking the bank?
Thanks!

True - so just to clarify, I need someone to put some holes in metal. I don't mind how they do it so long the lines are straight and accurate.
CNC, water jet, plasma cutter, etc. - anyone have a vendor?

There's a company that makes these with whatever you want, inc laser etched writing. You design it and they make it. Seemed pretty good. I can't remember who they are but ask around. Someone will know. Chris White pointed them out in the past.

I have seen some from here and they look good, not too expensive either.

Mine took about two weeks. Excellent customer service, and you can track the progress of your panel on their website.
$34 for mine.
Forgive cell phone pic. Looks far better in person.
