    Made this today and after looking at it I want to make another one that will go all the way to the floor and then make a matching console going from the dog house to the bottom of the dash.

    Thanks the aluminum I used was pretty thin so it was easy to work with and isn't very expensive.

    Here is a link to where I get the diamond plate. They also have it in black chrome and red or blue. http://www.cutsmetal.net/cosmetic-grade-polished-aluminum-diamond-plate-sheet-3-foot-x-8-fo38.html

    The piece I am getting is the one in the link, 36"x96" for $75.00. Much cheaper than paying $300.00 + for a dash skirt. It cuts easily with a pair of snips.
