Supra Kong Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 Has anyone had their dash refinished to original spec? I really like the std look, am not a fan of carbon wrap etc... If so, where did you get it done? Or what paint did you use? The standard stuff always seems to scratch fairly easy, is there anything more durable that would look the same? Thanks!!!

Stevo Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 I feel the same way about wanting to keep the stock look. Had mine sprayed in a matt black with a matt lacquer and it is pretty durable as well as being nice and easy to just wipe over when cleaning.

Nic Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 Has anyone had their dash refinished to original spec? Yes all dash panels replaced with brand new ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Littler Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 Yes all dash panels replaced with brand new ones. Don't suppose you have the part numbers for the panels Nic (including the panel with the folding mirror switch)? As I have tried many things with my panels and have just decided to buy new as I'm not happy with the finish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nic Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 They'll only scratch again!! New panels are a lot harder wearing, provided you don't use chemicals on them they will stay looking new for many years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rsme Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 I used motip bumperspray. Great matt finish and very scratch resistant. Black and dark grey available, I used the dark grey. Not the best pic, but gives an impression. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
