Sneak peek of next project
This is a photo of the dash, and the silver pipe is a roll of brushed alum with a protective coat to resist scratches, and a sticky side.
These two are just photos of the dash.
I realize there is alot of work to do which is why unlike the seats this will not be a *ill install tomorrow*
I have to re seat the dash pads, scrub the trim, create a timplate, cut the vinyl and then apply. This will be an interesting *to say the least* mod.. and will no doubt be installed this weekend.
total interior remodleing. write ups included and growing.

Sooo... I removed the centerconsole yesterday and tore the hell out of my fingers with those gold clips.
I will take photos when I take it out again probably tomorrow to put the aluminum on it.
that thing is a pita if youve never done it before.

1. pick up seat from friend to get skinned onto my drivers.
2. finish template for brush allum trim
2a. install trim.

5. reseat dash cover
6. tighten loose dash.

2. driver door catch/stop.
3. completely clean every inch of exterior!
4. be happy with a totally cleaned way I want it car!
