Does it extend to the dash? ?? This is an extended leather door card, it also means the centre console condiment lid is leather, the majority of the dash board is also leather.

In the non version the door cards and dash are plastic. Hurrah, mine has the stitching! ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon61 Posted July 5, 2018 Report Share Posted July 5, 2018 Not familiar with that one, is it Aussie? We like this one (it's American, so god knows what's in it!), on thinly-sliced salmon done on skewers on a BBQ. And, if I say so myself, it's got a better name than yours ... Anyway, this has gone a bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Menoporsche Posted July 26, 2018 Report Share Posted July 26, 2018 Nice! Put lots of lacquer on it. Mine is embarrassingly scratched from those moments I was forced to use the car to transport something when family car was not around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That looks fantastic @Southy with the red console and also the red dash cluster surround too. Is that also red stitching on your seats, I didn’t know that was an option back then. Looks great. I am tempted to paint my console and dash surround silver now to match my exterior colour ? For the dash surround how did you overcome the grainy textured finish, did you sand it smooth first before priming and painting it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, well the original owner of my car optioned the seats with red stitching, so the door cards and seats and black with red stitching, I added the gear gaiter and centre console lid also in black leather and red stitching, love it to be honest. I painted the centre console myself, the instrument surround I was very luck and bought it off ebay for less than I could paint it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
