That's pretty neat with the HVAC install in the passenger side. I love the contrast in colors as well

Re: Custom dashes... Post Up Pics!

glassed underneath and then wrapped
fuzziness isnt what your are probably looking for, but you could do the same glassed smooth with paint or another material.

Re: Custom dashes... Post Up Pics!

The GrandAm dashes look good, seems like its becoming mor eof a popular modification lately. I've had my GA dash and console for a year but I'm not ready to start on my interior yet so I'm in no hurry to get it done.

Re: Custom dashes... Post Up Pics!

its a lil further on down the line now. i wont do anything else to it till i finish the v8 swap



smoothing the holes and stuff



i think its all worth it. it makes your truck that much different from everyone elses. and theres no how long does it take you. its all different, alot of trimming, test fit, trimming, test fit, tack, dont work grind it off... etc etc

you just gotta go do it

It's RRRyans truck. I just bust my ass doing interior work. And this is one of them.
I call it the 64 Jimmy.
It has a 64 Impala dash, sectioned side to side and stretched front to back.
The rest of the interior is 64 inspired also. Door panels and console up next.

Simple and clean. Not saying it was easy to do but I like how the chrome doesn't clash with the dash color and everything. Looks really nice

Re: Custom dashes... Post Up Pics!

This has been an ongoing problem i belive not just for you but for many.
I have tried everything from fiberglass to bondo to just straight fiberglass resin. nothing worked i had about 80 hours into my first dash was close to being finished thought id put it outside to see what the sun wouyld do to it well i warped it bad to i through that dash out i email street trucks and this is what they gave me. most custom dashes are made from premolded fiberglass for the new gen s10 they look like hell( my opinion) or you can make it out of wood or metal for my truck i had a race car shop bend me up some metal and i then had to fit it cut it and then make the cluster to my knowlage i have never seen a dash like mine i took exsaust pipe and used a hole saw to make holes in the dash for my gauges to sit in i think its cool see my att below hope this helps

^if you wanna use fiberglass you can just use 2" PVC pipe, or if you wanna use a bigger gauge just use bigger PVC.
