Dashboard Update
Right guys ive sprayed the last piece of the centre console which is the cigerette lighter compartment cover same as the rest and then clearcoated like the rest looks good



Granted its not the best finish on either end but i was worried about it building up to much on the ends so just decided to leave it as most of the time you cant see it anyway

Now fit time  :o :) :y

BEFORE

After i pulled the Wood effect Centre Console out i transferred the decent buttons into the Silver unit and decided to remove the Red inner translucent layer to change the climate control lights from yellow to Blue/Green so here it is fully re-assembled

What a difference the silver makes. It looks fresh and modern compared to the plasticky wood. Well done :y :y

Hi Guys im still in the progress stages with the awful wood gear surround but i have a couple of questions i need some help with because im in two minds
look above for poll  ;)

And also im in two minds about the Door Card Trims,

1. Spray Silver/White Pearl same as the Centre Console
2. Spray a Unusual colour e.g. TVR Blue Green Flip
or
3. Wait till i get the Facelift DTi Estate and Do whole interior TVR Blue/Green Flip
