Hey I am wondering if they make custom gauge mounts to replace the passenger airbag, I think you know what im talking about, I have seen them on numerous other cars but wondering if they had it for ours. Kinda like an a pillar replacement with the molded holes for gauges but it covers the airbag area. Let me know if there are and where to get one
 
carbonworks may have one. There easy enough to make. I made a mold of my airbag and went from there, to make my 11" LCD screen in the airbag install.
 
I would try but I dont think Im good enough at fiberglassing to be able to make my own.
 
Have you met guys who're really good at fiberglass? Have you seen some of the aftermarket bumpers out there? Is that a bumper, or a spaghetti strainer?
For something as small as an airbag cover, you'd have no troubles at all. Start with a piece of fiberboard, give it the right curve, get some jar lids or something like that (plastic pipe, soda can tops, etc), put them on the board with some regular old kid's modeling clay, lay on the cloth and brush in the resin. If you screw it up, fix it with Bondo (just like the pros).
Once you try a couple of things, you'll be looking for stuff to glass. Hell, you could turn into another George Barris- especially if you inhale enough fumes.
