Talking Dash pictures

Hey guys, here's a picture of a customer's dash he wanted us to cover. I'm not done with the wiring at all, so DONT criticize it! Also I didnt setup the column, but I do still have to fix it. So only look at the dash please.

Yes, you ARE missing it. It has a sewn ultra leather cover on it. It just fits that good. I need to take a better picture I guess? It was a PAIN!! But I finally got it done.


I'll try to get a better pic

I hear ultraleather is difficult to form over compound curves so nice job I guess. I still like the 56 in paint after seeing some with covered dashes. But I can appreciate the time and effort to do it. I did see 1 with the f-100 logo sculpted under the UL in the dash center to break up the big area. I think it may look better in person.
