Default Fiberglassed Dash installed!

Hey guys,
I was able to get the Dash installed, the 200MPH cluster installed, all new Rockford Fosgate Riot Wire Speaker wire routed throughout the chassis, all electricall harness's installed, all new Rockford Fosgate Fanatic Q Components (6.5" in doors, and 4" in rear panels) as well as RF Titanium HPC 6.5"'s by the rear side wall. The TV installed, and the reverse camera installed...Here are some pics, I'll get more better ones, when I am able to roll the car outside @ Thanksgiving, damn halogen lights, and digi camera flashes suck lol....Just a lil sneak peak, I know you all wanted....







Now taking orders.....lol

Ps. NO the steering wheel is not stayin in the car, a billet one will be going in...

Looks amazing to say the least. Awesome work!

Edit: How was the install? Top of the steering wheel looks as if you cut it just to get the dash in or something. I can't imagine how much finesse that took to get the entire dash in as one piece. Was it fairly easy to do, remove the steering wheel all together? Give us details.

I actually dropped the steering column and installed it. It was easy, took some careful positioning though...As for the steering wheel, that's just the vinyl tearing.

How much would I charge, well to get an idea I showed it to a stereo shop here in Indy and they said their labor rate is $60 and houw, and it woud aournd 60 hours, so I worked as fast as them! Althought I wouldn't charge $3600 for something, prob around $700

nice work, you should make a writeup on it so others can give it a shot and see how much work is involved.

I like all the stereo stuff, but im really intrested in the dash. Is that the VFN Dash, how easliy did it mount, and what kind of quality. Im considering installing it in my car.
Thanks
Chris

That's not the VFN bro, that's an OEM dash I moddified.....

As for Luna...The interior should be done no later than XMas, and the car shoudl wrap up sometime in March, or April...
