Big Mark Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 (edited) As part of my cars rebuild I've been trimming the interior parts using a certain ebay sellers leather covers. Most are a pretty good fit, but their dash cover is total garbage. So having wasted money on 3 attempts, I did what I should of done from the start and took a spare dash to a professional at top of their game. Vincent Gibson - http://www.gibsonautomotiveupholstery.co.uk/ I have to say the results are amazing! 1) Made and just draped over dash 2) Reverse shots just before fitting 3) Fitted but with edges still to be trimmed/finished. 4) Completed. Thanks to Shawn Preece and Rosie for the recommendations! Edited April 4, 2018 by Big Mark (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks lovely Mark, Vinney does great work but this if reflected in his price. Are you still having issues with your mapper? Priorities seem to be: 1) Any with a drift car competing in BDC 2) Any drift car not competing in BDC 3) Any wannabe drifter 4) Any car that can be turned around the same day 5) Any car that can be turned around the same week 6) Any car but mine. 7) Mine if he has any spare time........

Big Mark Posted April 4, 2018 Author Share Posted April 4, 2018 Vincent has kept the pattern/template, so in it's a bit less of a chore if anyone wants theirs done. Plus once i do swap mine over there will be a spare dash (minus loom) that could be used on an exchange basis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Style Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 You need to go in and start kicking up a fuss mate. You’re a paying customer just like everyone else so why should yours be put to the back of the queue every time...even if it is extra work from the norm for them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kendo11 Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 Looks brilliant that. Daft question but that is actually the ebay cover they're fitting? Not one of their own making? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
