I spoke to a very nice local man today about flocking. I am dropping off my 3 gauge pod off to get it done.

I'll report back when it's done.

And if anyone wants my old Facelift complete dash, it's £30 or the bin.

My pod is 15 quid. Dash tops are about 75 quid. He's a busy bloke at the mo and will let me know when he's free.

If it's the guy we chatted about, his work is very good.

Rich, it certainly is. I ain't giving his details out until I have had a chat with him next week to see if it's OK.

I could be in need of him then or maybe Lee (catalunya) when i've saved up the pennies what with xmas only 70 odd days away and a family to feed (winge winge )

I put a length of dado rail in the car and scratched the dash just on the airbag cover passenger side. I'm ****ing fuming that i've done something so idiotic

Here's the results. Took awhile because of the grandchildren being around and giving me grey hair.







He offered to put a Carbon Fibre face plate in but I was just so impressed with the result anyway.

He can do a range of colours from his colour chart. I wonder if anyone is brave enough to have a WR Blue dash or centre consul?

I still have the JDM Facelift dash is anyone wants it. You can have it for £20 and get is done for about £70. Fit it and sell your

If you are serious about getting stuff done and want to call him. Drop me a PM and I'll pass you his mobile.

I've had a change of plans and I'm now no longer going to fit the flocked dash I bought from TingTongPJ/Oh-Flock.

It's the complete top dash for a newage inc the clock surround plus I can throw in a flocked ATI gauge pod suitable for 60mm or 52mm (with adaptor rings usually supplied with gauges).

If any locals are interested then you can have the flocked dash and pod for £120, I paid £115 for the dash and the ATI pods are around £130 new and obviously don't come flocked.

Free delivery of course via me in the region.

Just keeping the dash standard and fit a Defi pod, I have a flocked pod already in the car but it never matched the standard dash.

I'll be round to talk you into buying my dash shortly Simon, if it was weight saving then I'd let someone else drive the car.

Well it's funny you should mention seats as I have been on the look out for a set of black STi seats, no blood walnut dash though.

The only car engine I intend to try after the flat four will be a flat six in a Porsche.
