I can admit that I mostly did this for the looks but I don't consider myself a ricer, maybe a poser, but that will hopefully change when I get more drifting skills practising on a safe track.

Thanks for the comments.

Neither, I left the dash with a local rally driver ho has some experience with it, he did everything for $200.

No, not at the moment but maybe I will, on the swedish forum (SWR) it doesn't happen much and I know you norwegians are a step ahead both with rotarys and drifting.

how long did it take to do ?
I will try to do that next time.
Not sure, if you don't count the hours taking everything apart I don't think it takes a long time, 1-2 hours?
All you do is put glue on every spot that should be covered, then use a electric device that makes the dash static which draws the fibers and makes them standing up.

A local flocker will flock your dash for 250,- tops...

You can buy the supplies for $50. It would be worth doing it yourself.

Flocking yourself isn't easy and very messy... You need skills to flock yourself, and the results often are very crappy. Someone else can flock you good for maybe 200 bucks. Then you know for sure it will be a good flock, and you'll be satisfied.

Hehe, the PVC rollbar is only built so it will be a little easier for me to cut and bend the real deal, the seats are some China copies of the Sparco Evo but the quality is still good.
