Looks great! Kindof makes me want to do my dash, but I don't have any time with school and work. Maybe in the future! So if something bad were to happen would the passenger airbag just destroy your dash or did you disable it??

 

That looks nice

 

That is a great question and something I should probably note.
Since the passenger airbag has a stitch releaf through the dash board foam, obviously its not a seem. So we looked into cutting a seam in the suede to not effect the deploy of the airbag, but unfortunately the backing of the suede is white and you could see through it if we stitch cut it....

So it is wise to disable your airbag, its not clear in the event of a crash what would happen if you didn't.... I'm sure the airbag would still pierce right through the suede but the important part of an airbag deployment is actually the time frame, it suppose to deploy before your face gets there not after, and certainly the suede would effect that....

In my case I rarely have passangers... but I do tell them they don't have an airbag so be sure to push your seat back just in case

 

you definitely have to take the whole dash out to get it apart? If not I would do it tomorrow!lol

 

wow good job!

 

Basically, you wont be able to cover next to the windshield or maybe even under the gauge cluster or AC vent area without taking it all the way out, or it may not turn out as you wish and than your dash is basically ruined... not to mention it will be a hell of a lot easier to cover and guarantee that you cover it flat with no ripples etc... it takes time, its not hard at all... you only need a 10mm 1/4 socket... maybe a screw driver... its been a while.

 

Man that is a lot of work but NICE!

 

Thanks guys! appreciated.

 

Figured since this thread is the whole interior to update it with the wrapped bezel

 

suede dash looks very nice. (dont judge me) but my mom is actually pretty talented behind a sewing machine so shes made me suede shift boots for my last 2 cars. They are actually pretty simple to make (4 triangles) but they always look awesome. I have black dimond stitched suede with red stitching and always get asked what brand/where to buy cuz they want one... the shop of mom. shes made a few for the locals. haha

anywhoo end of rant, I love suede parts and thank you for not wraping everythinggggggg in it, you balenced the fabric with int. plastic and it came out nice!

 

Thanks for the complements. The only piece I may wrap next, and most certainly will be the absolute last is the rear deck lid. Its easy to get carried way, especially when you bearly pay for it, but obtaining the balance is key

Edit: lets see your mom's work (lol)

 

wow that looks amazing man. I love it. Jealous as fffuuuaaarrrrkkkkkk

 

looks nice, i bet it really helps with the glare on the windshield

 

It sure does Main reason why I did it.

 

I like the black headliner idea to. and all you need to paint is the plastic and have the visors wrapped in black suede. i have had a few customers with that and it looks really nice.
