Dash retrimmed

Recommended Posts

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.

I have to say the results are amazing!

 

1) Made and just draped over dash

Can’t believe you still haven’t got it back. They are taking their sweet old time with it!

 

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........

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.

 

Oh my! I sense a group buy stirring and my wallet begging for mercy already! :D In a good way though ;)
