Frayz, haven't been on here since December. Having seen those pics on the previous page, it looks brilliant. Well done, mate. 
Edit: Got anything else planned?

Well, nearly a year on and the dash still looks as good as it always did.
Still think it was worth every once of effort too. Minor changes are the carbon rear interior and the suede wheel. I had a 2nd wheel trimmed the same as the first but in suede.

So with my pillar pod now occupied by 3 Defis i needed somewhere to house the ACT and wideband. I could of mounted these near the stereo but i feel these are 2 of the most important gauges i need and should be in direct view of the driver.
Once again my good friend who did the pillar pod was signed up to mod the steering column cover to house these 2 meters.
Here she is .. and will also be flocked to match the dash

you wouldn't believe this, but when i re trimmed my new dash in the black alcantara stuff i discovered a major flaw in my plan.
the cloth i used faded in the sunlight faster then the fooken dashboard
anyway, i have sent my old dash away to get it flocked, should have done it from the beginning, cant wait to stroke it

Hi,
frayz, your car looks 
I have to thank you, due to your pictures (and your car I saw on the Allrad Daewel Rally Party in Trier last year) I decided to get my dashboard flocked too
Wasn't really decided until I saw your car and then I thought : JUST DO IT!
Will look nice along with the cage and Pole Positions
