Hmm im thinking if it was done right using the right paint as furkz says it could be done but sounds like one for the pros!

 

What colours they do Furkz?

When i changed my dash from an early to a late the only complete dash i could get was a grey one. I found a company in christcurch who sprayed it all for £70 They specialise in changing factory setup seats dash and door panels into whatever colours customers wanted. They were located on the business park in christchurch near Mc D's. I was well pleased with the result

You can buy flocking kits..

 

I was going to do something like this, very evo looking but flocking kits are expensive and you would need looads.

 

I think it'd look great though

Flocking is the kind of stuff race cars have on the dash to stop glare from the sun.

 

Very hard to do correctly as you have to a PERFECTLY smooth finish.

 

If its done correctly it shoudnt come off but then it costs lots and lots, but I think it looks pretty understated and cool.

 

Do it show us the results!

looks like fur you basically cover the surface in glue, electrify it and waft a load of tiny hairs at it, which stick end-on to the glue.

 

Get it right and it's like fur, get it wrong and it's like a bog brush :lol:
