Default Pics of dash kits?

Anyone got pics of dash kits? like carbon fiber or something? I'm not looking to buy one right now but I'd be interested in carbon fiber. I'm not 100% happy with my red paint job (not enough sanding rlly)

Carbon fibre might turn out tacky IMO, but if you had the charcoal dash it might not be so bad...it might blend in. I don't like the looks of that ebay kit though. Is it just a stick on vinyl? If so that would look terrible IMO and would be extremely hard to do.

Yeah I have the dark gray dash.

And yeah it's stink on vinyl. I saw the install video and it looks real cool, and faily easy to install for the price (I'd rather pay $20 and take an hour or two to install it then $200 for a quick install)

wloton: what do you mean? I dont have one of these :P

I have installed quite a few of these kits from Rvinyl. They use a thin High performance vinyl. thin enough to get a seamless look. If you do end up getting it. Make sure to clean the area as good as possible. And take your time. Once it sets, it holds up pretty well. Another plus is they hold there end on the warrenty. Had a few pieces lose there shine on a 350z and quickly got replacement pieces from Rvinyl. Like I said take your time and clean well.

My concern would have been around the curvature of the dash bezel. But then again, I was forgetting you have a 95 Blazer which has a totally different interior then mine. Yours is more square and flat Craig. If you do get it make sure to post pics. I'm curious to see the results.

Carbon is out of stock right now, but once/if I get it I'll post pics
