Machine Turned Metal Vinyl
Does anyone know where I could source the machine turned vinyl used on the Boss dash? I'd like to cover the console area too.

Here's a start, not sure if this is what you're looking for.

Yes just different names for the same thing. Point is nobody is doing it on any machine any more. The pattern is stamped or rolled into the metal or molded into the vinyl then vapor deposit aluminum is applied for the "look" of engine turned aluminum.
What people call real no a days is fake because they have never seen the real thing. Kinda like *****.

Here is some. If I were doing this, I would find the best I could find and just redo everything so that it matches. I do not think the factory finish looks all that great. I mean, it looks fine, but it doesn't look like metal. I bet you can find a material that looks better. I think finding an exact match for the factory material will be almost impossible, and possibly not worth it.
Let us know how it goes. I do like the machine turned look and hope it turns out well.
