Thanks Jim,  I thought about that and I'll check it out.  In reality all the
metal is in bad shape including the bottom of the fridge, vent in back of
stove, and latch cover.

Stuart,

I needed some brown to match my dashboard and couldn't find anything close
enough. I went to a local paint store and took them-literally-my dashboard
and left if with them to scan. They only need a few square inches. They made
me a spray can in that exact color. They can make any finish you want.

If your LED panel is in bad shape, let me know. I have made up some inserts
in brown and gray that go right over the indented area in the panel.
