Very, VERY impressed - making me draw up ideas for my dash to change my interior again (for the better)

looking forward to seeing it all put together - keep it up

Thanks, sargents. The only thing I made a mistake on is not getting all of my material together because I ordered vinyl for my dash from Mr Mike. I was getting seat covers from someone else.
Then I ended up with ordering seat covers from Mr Mike but they are Leatherette and my dash vinyl is a little lighter in color than my seats and door panels.

I`m going to edit this because what I stated above is not the "only" mistake I made it`s just one that comes to mind. I`ve had to do a couple of things over because they didn`t come out right the first time.

TxGood, I found another dash that looks very similar to yours, that you can draw inspiration from. Very classy.

Aston Martin V8 Vantage



Aston Martin DBS (the whole reason I was inspired to look up Astons in the first place.)
This is the car featured in the James Bond Movie, "Casion Royale". Love that car, it's so classy.

In the second set of photos you can see the stitching. That`s what allows you to have different curves and such with vinyl. I had to make mine where everything pretty much stretched straight. A couple of guys have asked for photos of my door panels being made so I`m going to start another thread just for those.

I could be wrong and will try to get a better angled pic, but does that aston martin have a gear indicator in the shift nob like everyone is talking about in the other thread?
