I was planning that actually, yea, but I think I kinda like the aged blinginess, if there is such a thing, that I've got from polishing the rockers to the level I have done.

New Dash Started
Post by Crazy_C » Sat Oct 30, 2010 1:30 am
Well I got bored last night and today so this happened!!!

Total pain in the ass to do, makes removing a Prelude dash seem stupidly easy!!!!
And I've been busy tonight, this has all been made in the last hour
A lot of cutting with a hand saw keeping the volume down but I'm very happy with how it's looking so far

Just bought some new gauges and dials for the car, seeing as how I'm gonna be running larger tyres on the rear and the V8 engine too, that means the speedo and tacho will be out, so I thought "stuff it" and I've bought this for a real sweet price!

Cheers mate, that's what I'm hoping!! With speakers in a smooth dash n that in the centre it should really give it a real nice finish
Still no idea what I'll do with things like the heaters though

The physical construction of the dash is now complete
All that's left to do now for it is cut outs for the 4x 6.5" coaxial speakers that are going in there and the digital dashboard and then carpet it


It's also going into the shop tomorrow for the V8 transplant to commence
