wow that looks great. couple of things though. first off i know you already know this but im gonna remind you on how fucking hard thats gonna be to paint. second off, that dash is fucking AMAZING. what steps did you take on doing it cuz im about to start mine. did you use any fleece or anything, take the vinyl off or what? thirdly, you have no tailights whatso ever? i like the look, but do you have anything at all? and lastly, i would slap some 26's on that SUV :)

yeah i wanted 26s but after i checked prices for tires (about 900 a piece) i was out. the 24 tires were bad enough. maybe someday, but we are thinking on baggin her so it will be all good. first things first. yes painting the inside is gonna be a bitch, no way around that. the dash, i tried to lay mat of the vinyl on the dash, didnt stick worth a shit, so what i did is heat up the vinyl and take a pair of needle nose pliers and slowly pull off the vinyl, alittle at a time. the foam under it you want to keep on. after that i soaked up the foam with resin, use the resin shooter :) then layed about 3 layers of mat. then follow up with filler, to fillin the high and low spots, then use some gel, and away u go. to join the dash with the console i just ruffed up the plastic and used 3 layers there too. i actually did each piece seprate then joined the two. i got bored one day and since blaupunkt sent me 5 12s i glassed an enclosure there. just for looks mostly not going to set any db records or anything. oh yeah the plastic on the sides of the dash, vents for the doors i left them in and glassed over that also. i glassed the dash in the car for the first couple of layers and to join the pieces together. then pulled it out to finish up. was a bitch and i made a mess in the garage. still have alittle bit to finish up on her but u get the idea. i went out and bought a big compressor so i will be sprayn some filler or gel hopefully this next weekend. well see w xmas and all.

ur gonna shoot filler? lol, thats gonna be super hard bro! shooting gel is pretty easy, but practice on something shitty first cuz its kinda hard to spray at first. it runs real easy if you thickin it too much. but god you will love when you only have to use the DA sander for like 5 minutes and then wetsand instead of sanding a bitch!

yeah i hear ya. we hav eused soem of the sprayable bondo before. the shit is thick as hell. we use a paint gun that is like a garden hose to put it on. :) i did it when the car was in the shop but i have been putting off buying a compressor for the house so i went ahead and did it so i can spray some this weekend. need to get he finished. but the filler works acouple coats and a light sand and regular primer then go thru the motions, 150 on up . if only i can get the car to start on a regular basis, was a bitch pushing it back in that garage. she has more issues than my girl//////
