Stan, I made mine {from a street speed limit sign the county was replacing.
Make a set of(M-F) bucks from wood & lightly lube. Lay the aluminum on the female buck & male on top of the metal, set it in a 20 ton press go to work adding light pressure. When you get to the corners add heat & hammer gently to prevent stretching & cracking , cut out the gauge & speedo & polish. If engine turning do that before cutting the holes.
