I have a Lone Star but my dash is a little different than the one in the picture. I did install a padded aluminum panel onto the fiberglass dash. You can paint the fiberglass and install the gauge, if you want. I think Shell Valley has a dash like the LS.

P.S. this pic is one I took on the trip to the London Cobra Show 2011. Somewhere south of Louisville, Ky maybe 5 AM. Rained for about an hour. The return trip was 300 miles of rain on a 510 mile trip. Lots of fun.
