The f#ck?! I've never seen that type of Rust-oleum before! Could you use that to repair cracked dashboards and interior places?

 

Im pretty sure the crack will remain

 

Damn... anyway to repair something like that? Or at least bring back the flexibility of the material so it won't crack anymore?

 

this gives a rubber like finish... might help

and as many people mentioned before... the hatch carpet did not catch the dye

 

(sorry if you mentioned in an early post) What type of dye did you use on the carpet?

 

regular clothes dye.

I just doubled the amount

This particular dye product can be used in cold or hot water. Cold didnt do sh*t. It sat all night on the dye with cold water and nothing.

One hour in hot water did the trick (boiling sometimes)

 

Theres a huge diference between stock and streetport.

I can only imagine a raceport.

Does anyone have a pic life this one, but using ITOs templates? These are RB

 

You might not be able to tell from the pics, but the resin is a lot thicker in some places, making it look odd and irregular
Its a shame.

 

 

wow it looks nice in the pictures tho. your car is really comin out nice. cant wait to see the end results!

 

Thanks boyee

I think Im on a decent path

the back of the a/c panel does not let me put everything in place

 

Nice work ! How many hours/months would you say that you have into this project so far?

that FD dash should look great!

 

cool

 

I got the car in 2004

stripped it, removed the engine and sent it to the body shop

the guy took forever...

I got the car back last year and I`ve been working on it around 10/12 hours a week

On vacations I worked on it everyday...

 

sounds about right

nice work... how did you get the idea for the FIT seats?? Did you just have some lying around?

What did you end up doing with the backseat?? Let me know if you're interested in selling it... shipping would suck though...

 

I have a Fit and I really like the seats, so I decided to get me a set

Now Im actually selling the fit seats, I want a set of FD ones. I will reupholster the rear ones to match
