Default Custom Ashtray Plate??

My ashtray lid is missing and they are so hard to find. Can't even get one direct from GM. I was wondering if anyone has fabricated a plate to cover the area where the ashtray lid goes. I see some people have made plates with buttons for nitrous and etc., but it's for under the lid. I wouldn't mind having a plate that covers the area flush with the console and maybe a nice Camaro SS logo on it. Has anyone done this or is there anyone that has access to tools to fabricate something like it??
