I'm back from vacation and it's windy as hell, but I decided to wrap a couple pieces of dash trim from my car, and also the back to my steering wheel finally.
Thanks man. I wish I could go into the junkyard here for some more sets of dash trim, but I can't. I guess it's something in the dirt maybe? I went there and my legs broke out super bad and were sore. I need a minion to go get more for me lol. I just have one set. I'm working on my radio bezel but I effed it up and the direction is the opposite way the other ones will be. Oh well.
This is some really awesome work! Too bad I'm converting the
carbon fibre look to yellow... Unless colours are no problem...
I haven't really used any yellow Kevlar yet. The pics of it I've seen don't impress me. I may need to try it out though. For now I'm just trying to get back in practice after being sick so long lol. I have a spare set of dash trim I may do. I'm trying to get the hang of adhering the carbon to the parts without it warping too much. What better victim than my own trim?

So what did I do to my car today? I started hating it lol. The seats are nowhere near as comfy as the Mustang rental I had. I feel like I'm sitting on a waffle in my car. The rattles and noises are starting to get on my nerves. The car has 150k. And now the car feels soooooooooooo slow.
I need to start appreciating the car before I end up buying a new one. I may do something drastic when the 50th Anniversary Camaro comes out in 2017. But for now I started working on a set of blue dash trim and experimented with a different way of doing things which seems to work WAY better. Here's the before. I'll give an after when it's done:
That blue CF looks amazing, that's when you should go sc lol
Shhhhhhh don't get 07blackG5 and slowbalt2000 started. They keep harassing me lol. Also I wish I knew a way to keep that color but I know it will darken.
Lol you have everything to do it, you have no excuse but I get you when I'm in a newer car i feel the same but then when I drive mine I love the power and forget about the other car in no time
Once I get situated I will do any kind of trim. I didn't think the Colorado had any dash trim though?
i have the middle piece and the trim above the glovebox. I had the ones from my old car at the house when it was stolen and they have been collecting dust ever since. Lol i also have one of the rear seat pieces from an LNF
Shhhhhhh don't get 07blackG5 and slowbalt2000 started. They keep harassing me lol. Also I wish I knew a way to keep that color but I know it will darken.
Over the weekend I installed option B, dual pass, zzp heat exchanger, changed crank position sensor, pcv valve, drained and replaced supercharger oil and swapped out the coupler.
