Default Holes in dash :(

I need some suggestions...so any help is appreciated...

heres the situation: i bought my ej1 from a dude and he put 4 holes in the right side of the dash for gauges. I considered getting a bezel from inlinefour.com : http://www.inlinefour.com/mughonpowem.html but its not wide enough and it would like sorta tacky. do you have any ideas? because i really dont need these gauge holes...cause hell if i did have gauges in em i couldnt see them anyways!

thanks in advance!

Just bite the bullet and buy a new dash pad. You could have it repaired by a shop but after a couple of years it will begin to fade or crack.

Some ******s stole my radio and in the process tore up the center of my dash with screwdrivers. I just replaced the dash pad a few months ago and even though it was a pain in the *** im glad i did it right.

If you are up to a challenge you could do an integra dash conversion

It will fit but takes some modification to make it look good, it might be more work than you are looking for but it looks good in the end!... Just something to think about
