I would be interested in carbon fibre overlays.

Let me know if you find a source!

I’m going to have https://www.maxqcomposites.com/ do one part for me to see how things go. Will report back.

I'm also looking for panel covers for a 73G. I plan on making some out of ABS for now, but carbon fiber would be great in the future.

Do you have a photo of the ORIGINAL Cessna plastic covers before the dismantling stage? My thought is you should try and retain/maintain originality as it came from Cessna.

Of course, I still have all the original panels. They are in awful shape, brittle and cracked, multiple acetone repairs, etc. Also, I'm going to go with a full engine monitor solution so the whole RHS needs to be redone anyhow. See attached pic for my concept.

I made overlays abs panel my first ones are very thin almost like paper but the new overlay is about a 1/16 thick so we will see how it goes for prettying up the panel after the mvp50s go in.

Belt, suspenders and ladder? 3 artificial horizons? I'd go with just two (your choice for backup - elec or vacuum) and use a stratus/ipad as your 3rd if you REALLY want a 3rd.

Nice! What computer program makes that panel rendering possible?
