No pics,but I've been kicking around the idea of making a new guage and speed-o panel with an aluminum plate and mechanical SW guages. Speed-o, tach, oil psi, oil temp, coolant temp, air psi, gas guage, volt meter. I pretty much have all the stuff to do it, just been getting other things done.

I am thinking a totally custom panel is the way to. Made to your own preferences

Do you plan on making it or do you plan on having someone else do the work? What I can't make my mind up on is what to color the plate. Should it be just the natural aluminum , or black, or polished, or what?

I would make it my self.
IMHO a panel color matched to your rig would look sharp

You could allways go with black
Timeless + less disstraction from the bezels

Try these two web sites. Both companies offer different types of plastic sheets that IMO would serve well as a holder for guages and could be machined to patch the profile of the original bezel.
