looking pretty good....

black is always nice :drool:
i dont know if i want to put more effort/money like this on my car tho....

props to you :D
I don't think vinyl is all that expensive Jae? As for effort tho, yeah it seems like it would be a boat load of work for the whole interior, but I think that boat load of work is in the disassembly and reassembly of the interior. Vinyl IMO is fairly easy to work with from my past experiences doing motorcycle seats etc..

well yeah....they arent too expensive, but with that money, i can have lunch for a day or two.....and that actually saves me alot since gas price is going up like krz :madrun:

im trying to budget myself on everything from now on.....changing driving habit is one of them....;)

Oh man that's awesome. Make sure you update us after a while and let us know how it holds up to some time under this south Florida sun. I'd be interested in trying this sometime. :D

How did re-fitting the panels go? I know some of the panels in my car BARELY snap back into place as is. I almost want to say that if I done this and wrapped vinyl over the edges like you have done the clips wouldn't snap all the way in.

Looks good though, I'm curious to see the completed project. What is the plans for the top of the dash?

I plan on the doing the entire dash with the vinyl(Has a real nice feel to it) and all the accessories that are blue im gonna leave them blue but I might end up sanding them down and redoing it in metallic gray
