Yep except in a roll and is sliver matte finish. and should be alot cheaper lol... Thanks for the link "diamond plate" is the pattern name! WOOT! i been trying to figure it out for a long time.

Printing was done locally, when looking for a print ask to see if they use an ECO- SOL (solvent based) printer. and if they apply a cold lamintate over top its will be very durable. I think mamemarquees does this kind of printing method.
BadMouth:
You can probably get real aluminum diamond plate for $25-30.
Definitely no worries about durabiliity.
Check with a local welder or machine shop.

Epic project, just the right amount of sim & arcade + that mod twist & tidy sleek artwork
I want to copy off you exactly, nice!
Here is a good source for diamond plate which he will cut to size for you: http://www.cutsmetal.net/

Seriously, get to work & post more pics broseph. I am wanting to see how you mount the steering wheel, pedals, pc & etc before I get into something similar. Hell I could sorta use your plans....
I know this info is late for the OP but others following the thread may want to check out seats here as well http://www.summitracing.com/search/Department/Interior-Accessories/Part-Type/Racing-Seats/?Ns=Price|Asc Thats where I plan to acquire mine, FYI most require a bracket such as this one: http://www.summitracing.com/parts/SUM-G1153/?rtype=10. I like how there are colorful seats to match a persons theme or art. The lower cost ones sure look like they belong in a machine eh?
Dude I dont know if you plan to mount the pedals upside down but that would be sweet. Also look at the cool cup holder pic I attached, its installed on a side mount type tower just like your plans call for (how perfect is that). Just make sure the cup holder isnt before the shifter (DOGH) if you go that route.
I know this is your project & I am bringing up elements that I want to inject into my build but I figured speaking up now while you are building might be helpful. Its better to share ideas now while you construct vs withold them until you finish the build >:D I really am going to copy off you so its the least I can do (no worries, I will do a Race Drivin or Hard Drivin theme).
Ok, done hijacking ;D
