What do you think?










NICE.

where did you get your material for those? are they automotive grade? what type of adhesive did you use? it looks like glue soaked it and now you can see through it.

Still waiting for my new carpet, cannot start to assemble the interior until the carpet is in. I´m thinking of wraping the dash while it still is in the car, i have removed everything from the dash and i think i can do it in the car instead of removing it. I dont want to have the dash grey while all other interior details are wraped in black.

I have a dash out of the car too. I also think it is doable, but I'm going to start on smaller pieces first.

This seems kind easy, but time consuming?

Side note, Id just use somthing to lets say FILL IN THE CUP HOLDERS and wrap over it


No one ever uses the back ones, and why they are there...I really dont know...

Id also get rid of the cup holder by the shifter, I dont drink extra jumbo stuff, and dont need it either since I dont eat in my car

Remove the top,on each side you will see a small screw-unscrew this and under the handle you have a C-clip remove it with some small screwdriver or a knife or something and remove the handle. That it now you can coax the plastic part away.
