    Thats looks very nice and much better than the carbon fibre dash from Saab. I am curious to see how the dash is going to turn out.

    I did this last night should of not had the goose and cran, came out ok not my best work as you can see bishop does not approve. to all that try this the area around the speedo and the vent shut offs were the worst part i would paint all the exsposed edges black or gray before putting the wrap on.

    That looks really good, a big improvement over the wood, is that the '02/'03 Linear 'light walnut' or whatever they called it?

    Nice! I did this to my 9-5's dash and door trim a few months back.
    How did you handle the transition from the dash fascia to where it goes back to the gauges?
