Build-a-dash!

What are you using? I'm planning to make a new dash and console for one of my "brand-x" projects because the factory dash obscures some of the indicators (really poor design). I was planning to cut it and shape it out of styrofoam and cover that with fiberglass so it would still be removable.

Good luck with it. Sometimes the hard way is the best way to learn.

I used metal screening sections for support, then the rest is a few thin layers of Evercoat Rage Extreme body filler, this will not be removable, but should be durable and once sanded down nice and smooth and painted, it should look pretty nice. I was thinking about painting it black, and using a satin clear coat finish on top so that it doesn't have that high-gloss cheesy look.
