started the process of fixing the dash cracks. Using bondo with fiberglass, then skim coat of regular bondo. will be flocking this weekend. There is a corresponding portion of the metal dash component that will be flockled as well.

Its never going to be stock again, so why don't you do something out of the box.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) Are you asking why im flocking the dash pad? If so, I guess because a new one is around 700 bucks and very hard to find. I mean thats the backup plan if this looks bad or fails completely. There were like seven huge cracks in this thing and numerous small cracks. Ive watched a bunch of videos on repairing the dash this way and you can just rattle can it black but all the texture is lost. this hopefully wiill look more like an alcantara dash when done. the dash is completely smooth which you can't tell from the pics. more pics to come |
