Decided to strip all the interior out(everything!)and start from scratch.chipped of detaining and grinded to bare metal through out the inside of the car
Some people might get all but hurt about this but I sprayed bed liner on instead of paint.i love the look and texture of it!it cost me $100

Yes! Dash looks awesome. I can't believe that car doesn't have a bunch of rust. Do they not use salt in the winters up there? I know in some places in the US it's too cold for salt so they use sand, but still. Nice, relatively rust free car you have there!

I found a peice of scrap metal at my dads work and it was 6 ft long and already was bent at a 90.so I measured and started jigsawing.at first I painted it alluminum color but wasn't happy with the finished product.so I was in Canadian tire and seen a roll of 3m carbon fibre wrap and gold trim witch cost me $60.the gauges are Equis and cost me 120 and the ignition switch button panel cost 30 bucks on sale at princess auto.all together it cost me 220 so far for the dash work
