I've done this for my own self....but I didn't buy it from Finish Line. I just went to the fabric shop and bought a couple yards of vinyl that matches the original Cobras. It's a lot cheaper that way....like $12.

I too have a Shell, and wanted to go with the authentic approach, so I ordered an aluminum dash panel from Finish Line....that way the gauge holes were already cut and everything was ready. I trimmed it to fit, trimmed the fiberglass behind it so the gauges would stick through, then covered the aluminum in vinyl. Looks great. You can check my gallery.
