stereo surround mod (pic)
hey guys, I tried this because it sounded like a good idea at the time. I think it turned out good. Still need some final touches like cutting holes for heater ***** and clock, and my gauges. Let me know what you think.

Always waiting for parts!

It looks like you did a great job of putting it in there, but the material is off. For some reason I just have the urge to stand on your dash. possilbly brushed aluminum but that will still be really bright. Smoked plexi glass might look really good, since you already have a pattern. You can put some gauges behind it that only show, when they are lit up. Just a thought.

yea i have to agree it does stand out. It still looks 10x better than just an opening in the dash needed a quick fix so went to hardware store and picked it up. Will i keep if for awhile? Your damn right, you don't know how much filing had to be done!! Maybe with the gauges and radio and stuff it won't stick out as much.
Plexi glass, can you form that to bend like the aluminum did? I also like that idea, easier to file too. Thanks for the input everyone.
