you could always let Schaeffer only manufacture the CNC drilled frontpanels and build a modular enclosure from wood, for example.
Also, depending on what you really need, you can save some money in Frontpanel Designer, e.g. by concatenating artwork or text into one single HPGL outline object (if I remember that right).
I had one of the sales reps from Derby (UK) come to see me about using some profile,the prices were very reasonable but the killer was the packing and postage.
I think the site is hard to navigate but there are some good profiles scattered about http://www.item24.com/en/
