Ok so I am adding an aluminum panel flat over the recessed area of my stock 27 Dashboard. The panel lays flat against the dash and I am going to attach it with several screws around the perimeter of the aluminum panel.
So now I need to decide what type of screw head do I use right there on the panel! Do I go with a traditional chrome Phillips or maybe black anodized Phillips screws or maybe stainless button head allen screws. The main part of the dash will be satin black. The insert will be brushed aluminum so I can’t decide what to use for screws. Should I use black screws to match the main panel, or should I go with silver screws matching the insert. I dunno I am leaning toward the button head screws but I dunno… what would you do in this case? Let’s gets some opinions flowing here…ow btw the instruments have white faces with chrome trim.. There will be 4 2inch gauges and a 3inch Speedo for instruments..
