Anyone installed a brothers billet dash??

I ordered a billet dash inset only from a store, same as on brothers.com
How does this fit?? Mine does not line up and seems to have a fairly large gap on the bottom... it says there is no modification or cutting needed.

Never mind I found this....
I dont like how brothers.com lists this as no cutting or modifications required then they makers of it say you have to hack away your stock dash!

Hey Baged 72,
We manufacture our own billet dash panel, which requires no cutting or modification at all. The company link you provided is a separate company and has no affiliation with Brothers, we have ours manufactured at a local machine shop. Our Billet dash screws in as simple as the original dash bezel. If you have any questions about our product please call, PM or e-mail me.

Re: Anyone installed a brothers billet dash??

I just was in Email contact with a guy in Eugene Or. that makes pick guards and he said to send him a template and or photos and he would see what he could do.
I think it would be a very cool idea. lots of neat plastic designs out there. I was thinking of sanding the bezel's down that go around the gages then have the tapered dual color of the pick guard showing as it tapers into the gage speed o area etc. If that makes any sense.
