ok guys this is going to be my next little project but got to get the dash out !:shake:....going to get the dash 'flocked ' at some point . I have seen this in the flesh (Darren's time attack impreza at whifbitz) and it looks the dogs bo..ocks ! My dash has a couple of lovely old screw holes in the top of the dash that look like mini volcanoes ....this is the answer Suffolk Flocking Services, the Flocked Dashboard specialists - Dashboards and interiors for track, race and kit cars

mmmm ...seems a bit of mixed opinion doesn't it ....thing is my dash has had these two bloody great big screws holes in it since i got it 8 years ago and its always really annoyed me, the Japanese fellow must have had a 32'' flat screen TV attached to the dash i reckon !! ...i tried filling them once but you just noticed that 2 big screw holes had been filled in !

A pro can fill with the right colour and lay over a 'masque' that creates the right graining effect, Autoglass had to get this done on my old Sierra after the gimp cut a chunk out of the dash while removing the screen, it really was invisible.

well i'll have a think as my dash just looks 'old' nowa days ....if it looks that bad i can always get another :biggrin:

As you would have to take it out to have it flocked, probably as cheap to get it repaired/repainted. Check out post#9 in thread below..............

A local here did this to his door handle trim on his sti. Turned out nice! Good luck.

It can look decent, but you have to keep it clean. The fibers get a bit "matted" down and it starts to look odd. Might as well just cover with some sort of cloth if you have the whole thing out.
