Anyone done this here? I am almost done with everything, just finishing up the doors, and i'll only have the dash left. Did you glass over the vinyl, or take the vinyl off? I have 2 spare dash boards, and i peeled the vinyl off one, and it has NO shape, basically the foam/vinyl gives it the contours etc. I think it would be hard to get the exact shape if you take off the vinyl. Anyone have any advice? Thanks

i have done it twice. first i glassed over the vinyl, pulled like a mother. then i pulled off the vinyl with a heat gut so it seperates from the foam. keep as much of the foam on it as u can then soak the foam with resin. then add layers of glass over that. let me know if u have any more qs ben

Three layers of glass on a dash if you hit it with your head you'd get knocked out before it cracked dude. Glass is hard as a rock especially when it's backed. Glass kits crack because they aren't backed by anything. If you lay glass on the dash it isn't going anywhere at all.
