Need to at least learn how to post a photo on a forum if you're going to flame someone.

Since I'm getting destroyed with opinions anyways, figured I would post up the center piece I wrapped in suede and the other pieces I had hydro dipped. Bring it! haha

Car is really dark inside form black headliner and tint so it's hard to get a good photo with the **** lighting (no the top of the HVAC control is not white, just bad lighting).

The point I was trying to make it its designed to explode and not kill you. Your metal emblem and vinyl is not.

Can we get some pictures of the hydrodipped pieces when you get them installed?

Not exactly my cup of tea but you did a heck of job, looks great. Like you said the steering wheel needs to be a bit tighter but everything else looks very well done.

After the hydrodip, I think that getting the wreath and crease embroidered with a cross stitch pattern on the leather would look pretty damn good.
