I know its been a while but I was waiting on getting another dash part for a just in case but no one came through..........:cry:

So I said **** it and went for it.

I finally decided to use 3M, 2 part bumper repair.

I did loose some or the grain/texture.

I was going to spray it was SEM texture spray but I got to nervous and didn't want to push my luck.


Well OK homeboyz here you go....................





so how about a breakdown of how you did it, looks good

Hey that looks good!

Do you still want that dash part I have? Sorry it took so long, I have been swamped at home and finally found a box but keep getting distracted on packing it.

Just filled it in and sanded it to shape.

Then sprayed it with Kirbans color match burgundy It was fairly simple.

I don't know why no one here has done it before.

How did you re establish the leather grain? Looks like a different part to me. Filling and sanding will wipe it all out. One reason most people give up is because the vinyl is trashed, crunchy and brittle. It's like fixing a potato chip.

The grain is gone what you see is just the paint texture
