Thanks for the replies guys, the shop definately did a great job on it, and theyre really great people as well. I went to 3 or 4 shops until I found one I was comfortable with. They were more willing to do the work since I had the dash out of the car to begin with.
Also, Im going to get a new headliner, should I go black to keep with the theme, or should I go lighter to try and get some contrast? Seems most cars have a lighter colored headliner, im sure its something to do with making the car feel more open, but vikingramair did his in black, and I gotta say I really like it... but still wanted to get some more opinions

Thanks for the pics viking.... Im still going back and forth on whether to go darker or lighter. Definitely wont us vinyl for the headliner, was going to purchase one of the aftermarket pieces made of ABS plastic... just a matter of color 
And for those asking, the shop charged $300 out the door, including tax and materials, etc. I brought the dash in seperate from the car, though, so I'm sure it was easier to work on.
