The other option is to make it yourself by either cutting to shape, steaming or laminating... Can you post some pics and/or measurements?

This company is going to fabricate an exact replacement out of acrylic for my FW.

They have multiple colors and thickness options available. They will also laser-cut and polish the edges. You can either send them a rough sketch with specs, or he said you could also just trace the old dash face onto some large drawing paper and send it to them and they will take it from there. The prices are good as well.

Sorry to drag an old thread out of the basement but I have the same issue and was wondering if you got your dash fixed Phil. If so, who did you use and how did it turn out?
My gauge panel is falling off the actual dash. The screws have ripped out of the dash and either stripped or broke the screw holes that hold the 2 pieces together.
