That dash looks awesome!!

Thanks. I also sanded all the phony grain texture off door panels and interior plastic and sprayed it a matte black...gave it a nice custom look.

Really liking your custom touch's. Can't wait to see more of the car.
Matte on the interior? Interesting.......

I found some unusual 70's fabric that I am using on the center seat areas of my 73. It has low back front buckets (I personally don't care for the high back factory seats)...and the back seat is being "sculpted" to match the front seats so it looks like 4 buckets. The black is Ultraleather and it gets Tangerine piping just around the patterned inserts. It'll be different, and I think it'll look cool against the carbon fiber dash area. If nothing else it'll be different. lol

Yes, that fabric match's well with the carbon fiber! Good choice!

I love the paint scheme, bold but not overdone. It looks awesome!

Here's a photo of a door panel showing that matte finish and the sanding of the grain.

That looks really good. Did you sand the texture off of the door panels before matte paint?

Great use for door panels that aren't perfect any longer.

Yes, sanded them flat with 180...mine were scratched up badly so this was a great fix...looks more custom and I may even carbon fiber a section.

Good idea. It's really looking awesome!
