Step, After I read your post I checked the original panel and it is actually spelled correctly but it kind of all runs together. I had to look at it twice just to be sure.

Your right, I just looked at it again the secound l add c are touching Looks like a k to me Well that being taken care of lol your dash looks great, how thick is the starboard that you used? Very nice job

You could like was mentioned before about covering the screw heads with caps but threw my experience they will fall off later and I like he screws showing but what I would do ( I don't know if you did it ) is have all the slots in the screws facing the same way so is the the slots are up and down all would be the same, that shows that you pay attention to the small details like electricians do all the slots on the screws on the switch covers should be the same direction if not get another electrician

yeah, there are good & bad ones.
Those on my dash have been there years. I have had them on & off, and they are still tight and hard to remove. (Bought them at West Marine $$).
I bought some chrome plastic ones at Pep Boys for my license plate....all 8 were gone in a week.

If you want you can spray paint the screws black

The original screws were painted or coated black,but I wanted to use shiny new ones. I actually like them showing. It is not as obvious in person as it is in the picture. At any rate I am glad to have that done. Now to move on to other things. No end to the madness LOL.
