1- Take a sheet metal that will fit in there.
2- Take a hole saw and drill as many holes you need to fit gauges in.
3- Install the plate.

I would use plexiglass. Hitup lowes, pickup a small peice of it (its fairly cheap), trace our your blockoff plate, cut it the plexiglass to fit, then trace out your guage, and cut the hole out. SImple, really. I did that w/mine awhile back. That way your not cutting/drilling into a $20 OEM blockoff plate. If your screw up, you can just go and get a new peice of plexiglass.

I think carbon fiber would look awesome, but if its the only carbon fiber in the car it might not look right or ricey. I would just get the JDM blockoff plate and mount it there.

Since its rice...:???:
Define 'rice'? Im sick of all these people saying "dont ever do that agian" or "dont ever think about doing that again" or "b/c its rice". Who the f*ck cares?!? its HIS car, NOT yours. If you dont like it, tough s**t. Dont look at it. You dont have to drive it, so why do you care what someone else does to HIS car? :roll: Now I know why Im selling my Civic..... :oh:

C'mon man! You know just as much as anyone else that the F&F era is over and the parts off the shelf at pep boys and autozone are a no no. you wouldnt want your ride to look like this would you?

OR

OR


So the answer is clear.. NO RICE!

EDIT: See the resemblance of the shopping cart and the shopping cart wing on the trunk. We wont even talk about the bench for a wing!!

Yet you say nothing about the Subaru thats there and is nice looking....hmm... You must have no life if you keep track of what 'era' is overwith and what 'era' we're living in now. I know I sure dont. And if you had any kind of sense in your thick head, you'd know that those cars are like that, as a joke. None of them are serious. The hood even says "Poser" on it. C'mon. Have alittle more common sense than that....So just b/c the guy wants to put LED backlights on his guages, he's a ricer hmm? Well, I guess from now on anyone with a green Civic coupe is a ricer. :oh:
