I had 1 of those piz-o-chit ws ones in my car trust me you are not losing out on anything.I only used part of it grafted to a original dash to make it decent.

Being from the Thermoforming manufacturing industry I can tell you that while it's possible, it's not likely due to all of the undercut areas that complicate the shape and couldn't be formed, you'd need to glue some features onto it similar to how the garbage E-body door panels were being vacuum formed by Accuform/Palco, etc. Not to mention that the cost of the mold itself and the labor involved in manufacturing the parts could get pretty expensive. You'd also need to do a lot of trimming and hole cutting as a secondary opperation.
