Amazing............!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just amazing......!!!!!!!!!!!!
Keep on my friend... :happy2:

I'm very suprised with the result on the dashboard...
Flock dash & front Pillars

Can you give me any details about the flock dash...
What materials did you use and where can I find them.

why the flocked dash.  most people flock it when they have cut it apart and reshaped it.

It's a great look though and looks very racey  :happy2:

Does it show every spec of 'dirt'? And has it been applied on top of the oem finish?

The flocked dash is to prevent, as much as possible reflections.  :innocent:

....Interesting to know  :happy2:

I guess that some cars, not the GTI upper dashboard, suffer from this.

Its only a matter of time!!! Neil knows he'll be joining us on the grid  :happy2:

Hi Si, I will have a meet with David Butler (BMSAD) to see whats what.

I have heard that Simon Elliot is getting a new Caddy Van for next season  :jumping:

One of the things is you'll need to get out in 10 seconds for a sprint licence, then your racing the clock  :smiley:

Master Elliot is building a new van but how long will it be before its in the bodyshop  :laugh:

I can confirm I was that fella back in the days when Mark was at VWR as it was the 1st race car they built with hand controls.

I managed to get out of the car in 5 seconds, quicker than most abled body
