Anyone Make Dash inserts?

I'm looking to see if anyone makes custom dash panels for the 6th gens. Essentially the same piece that is shown in carbon fiber in the picture below. I really want a Alcantara insert just like the standard ZL1 dash but with White stitching. If possible I would also like to find someone who will embroider a "1LE" logo there. Is anyone selling pieces like this or am I on my own to find a upholstery shop here to do it?

Don’t think anyone is making what you want.
An upholstery shop can easily do this for you, I had mine done in green houndstooth

There are a few options out there.

RPI makes a passenger side dash insert that covers the entire dash. You can get in multiple colors or a carbon fiber look: https://www.rpidesigns.com/shop/item...SABEgL1dfD_BwE

I like that, but I wanted something for just the lower half, and I didn't see that anyone made something like that, until I came across someone mentioning this seller on ebay:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Car-co-pilot...dZtCHM&vxp=mtr

I bought one (took like 3 weeks to get it....from China) and I like it. Now...yes its kind of "cheap" but installed it looks fine to me and the fit was perfect. If you want something that looks like factory piece, this may not be it, but on the other hand it looks good enough to me that nobody except an enthusiast would ever know it wasn't a factory piece unless maybe they tried to pry on it.
