Default wood dash turns carbon!

Well i've been lurking for ages but decided to post up some pictures of the carbon i wrapped on my dash since i finished it today.

Let me know what you guys think! Pics taken with a 3gs iphone ... sorry in advance lol


Shiny veneer, but its time for a change


Backside, veneer with metal sandwiched between the inner wood, very impressed with the quality


Carbonized!


Close up


Inside edges


The back with some bandaid pieces, just in case! i do NOT want to take the dash back out lol


Vents / glovebox button


Other side


Dash looking pretty sparse


There are 3 of these i had to remove and put back. I needed a treasure map to find them and they are definitely NOT removable by hand


Took awhile to snap back in


Glovebox back in


Passenger side


Above the console


Dark drivers side


All done and i'm very happy with the outcome! I think i should get dusting too!

This is an upgrade in this interior. I don't like it much in the tan, but the darker colors always works better without the wood.
