    I had toyed with the idea of deleting the passenger recess as wel, simply b/c that would be a bitch to wrap. I wrapped a guage ring in Neffy wrap, that simulated CF fabric, and that was a nightmare. I'll tear down the donor dash and see what happens over the next couple weeks:)

    thanks for the input guys, and stay tuned for pics...hopefully.

                sooo.....first attempt...not so good.

                Poor quality of suede i think, next round is going to have to be a stretchier blend.

                  dude please use real alcantara, any other suede will wash out color w/ the sun and then will look like shit and you will have to do it again. Make you templates and test fit w/ shit stuff and then pony up a couple hundred for the real Alcantara.

                    Are you just hoping it will stretch? Like a sock or something - LOL - That's not going to happen I don't think.

                      I'd try this before wrapping it with anything.

                          I got some nice Alcantara from gulf fabrics. That's what I'm going to use with my replica M tech cloth for my e30 m3 seats/pannels.

                          I'm contemplating to do in leather my dash as well, since it started to crack a bit and I'm not sure if I will be able to get a good, crack free dash for cheap down here. But the job done in the first thread, OMG, no words!

                            OK. So i guess the part where i said "first attempt" didn't sink in.

                            My mistake, i'll do everything fucking perfectly from here on out.

                            This was some suede i already had, that i thought i would try and see if it worked. which it didn't, that is ok, because i was able to reclaim the dash. Shit happens. if i had the $90 per yard for the good stuff, which BTW there is suede that stretches, i would have used it. But seeing as how i am too busy doing things wrong so you can bitch about it, i haven't ben able to make any money recently.

                            Sorry if i pissed some of you off, but tough shit. To those of you that offered real advice...thank you. to those that posted to just to tell me how to do it...go do it yourself, then post. at least i tried.

                              Ok then, in answer to your first post.

                              If you are not a qualified motor trimmer, dont even bother.

                              The suggestion of flocking was an alternative to achieve a similar result.
