I thought of that as I was typing. It's pebble grain texture, wouldn't that be an issue?

 

Its stupidly priced, it's a flat piece of single din sized plastic, and most places charge $90.

You can get away cheaper doing real carbon on a piece of Balsa.

Dash looks better than it did. No scratches or rust now. Its not dry so pictures in an hour and a half at soonest.

Its still too shiny as its not dry, but its close, so its reflecting a LOT of light and looks grey in the pic, but here is an early before and after before its completely dry:

Put in a new fuel pump capable of 850HP, new rear bump stops (just a little work to jeep stops from energy suspension), started bleeding the brakes until I ran out of fluid. Put on Wilwood 6 piston front and stainless braided lines a while back. After this it's time to put in the new motor when I can get access to a lift and some help.

Trying to decide if I want to buy a Motive pressure bleeder for when I install a Wilwood Master Cylinder....I used to have one and it was great but not sure how much use it would have for firebird after the one time.

 

 

Since I'm starting to spend money on it again I might just put it up for "actual" sale too not delay my next purchase. :lol: all the old car fans think I nuts for wanting to sell it for hellcat, all the new car (as in: young)fans don't even know what it going on under the hood. Its really pretty depressing.

Looks real good, but would have been sweating bullets taking that splitter over that curb/drain edge.
