My buddies and I found a way to easily turn ur interior into a hot smooth surface. If u sand down the plastic "fake leather" look and apply flowable finishing puty, sand it smooth, it'll look bomb. Im working on mine right now soo pictures should be up within maybe a month or so. If anyone has any ideas or any advice it would be much appreciated.

Subscribing for the pics coming.

 

i was thinking the same thing, itll look like fiberglass

 

post up pics when done!!!!

 

I painted the satin nickel panels today. I chipped the hell out of it sanded down to have a wood look to it. Painted them black. Looks ok but not what i wanted if you wanna do the same ill post pics

 

Those ripples on the dash are meant to deflect light from getting in your eyes while driving. No doubt it would look better smooth as fiberglass, but it is there for a purpose.

 

I was thinking jus painting mine..what paint would you guys suggest, and great idea

 

Well, since i have a white LS and I have blue neons, I'm going with a white, blue, and carbon fiber look. I already have some things wrapped in carbon fiber, looks bomb. And I painted some of the interior over the summer, but I didn't like how it looked with all the ripples, so I'm re-doing it. I was actually thinking, it might be a little longer than a month seeing as I have alot of bills to pay, I jst handed my mom 200 bucks for the months payment, and valentines day...ugh...i gotta make money. OH and also...does anyone know a way to get the crank for a manual window off? I know theres a pin somewhere but nothing will work. Short of just breaking it off, im out of ideas.

i would love to see a how to on taking the whole dash completely apart

 

hmm i need to see these pics.

 

The dash basically just pops apart. If you see a peice you want to take off pull on it gently...odds are its just held in by tabs haha.

 

what about the passenger air bag cover though??? will that lift with the whole dash or will it stay in place and ill just have to do an insane masking job inside the ride?

 

ive had some experience taking dashes off and some other interior peices from my cobalt, and they all use clips, just gotta be real careful yet firm when pulling, and if you happen to break one well then don't kill yourself cause your dash may never sit right.

 

from experience i will tell you...the glare sucks.
its not horrible on mine...becayse the colors so dark...but its still sooooooo glossy that even when its not sunny i get reflection and glare.

 

I'll be waiting for pics too.

After this Friday, I have two weeks off before I go back to school. In that time, I'm thinking about doing everything below the silver bar in a smooth gloss black. Then, on the upper dashboard and top of the door panels I'm hoping to be able to remove it any maybe cover it in a black suede or microsuede. And, after I receive a few samples from an online company, I may be doing my armrests in a yellow suede/microsuede. I've got a yellow SS/SC.

 

Sounds similar to what I would like to do. If you do any of it post your pics too.

 

can you post up pics of the car without the dash? i want to know how much space is in between the dash and air vents

 

bump ware the pictures at?
