Can anyone recommend a place that would take your old dash panels from the boat and replace with something like an ABS material or starboard material. Like a carbon design or something more modern?
Looking for someone south of metro and not gonna break the bank.
I’d love to find a replacement also. Carbon Fiber look or a faux wood panel would be a nice improvement.
Are you fellas talking about a panel that is flat? Are you talking about a molded panel with a profile to the surface?
A cabinet shop could reproduce a flat panel out of Starboard.
A fiberglass shop could reproduce a profiled panel, although it wouldn’t be cheap.

Yes a flat panel for gauges, 1 for switches for bait well, live well, anchor lights, etc. not sure what you mean by a molded panel with a profile to the surface?

Carstens Industries is a fiberglass manufacturer out of Melrose MN. If you provided dimensions they may be able to assist. They have the ability to do carbon fiber and could have time for an easy custom job.
A metal shop could make you a brushed stainless or aluminum one on a laser very easily.
Sun glare off of brushed stainless on a panel near your gauges will darn near blind you in the sun, ask me how I know 
Some of my panels are starting to look a bit tougher, my plan when I have the time is to have them hydro dipped in some form of carbon color. The Faux wood is looking a bit dated these days especially with the sun bleaching.
