Thanks guys,
Now that I have gotten over the first one and have a firm "know how" on what is involved, I know that the next ones will be of better quality.

I shall get back to you all on a price today...

Cheers,
Roy

That looks great. I'd definitely be interested. What material will the final product be made of? Carbon Fiber and...?

Personally, I'd like something either plastic or vinyl that still looks stock but like something you would see in a new car...

Ok guys,

The price is $65 plus shipping.

Its made out of fiberglass. I can make it out of carbon fiber but it will cost more... :icon_razz. Fiberglass is good becoz when you mount your gages and what not you can find lots of adhesive that will bond really well to it.

The paint I used is like a metallic black paint. I liked it...Looks really kewl when you look at it in real life. I will actually paint my one for my car silver.I painte some of my interior black and will paint little parts like the inside handle on the door silver and so on. Would Look really good...

I shall install it in my car this weekend and will post on here.

Cheers,
Roy

I'm down, do you take Paypal? When do you expect to have the 1st batch ready to ship?

Also, does it have the same mounting points as the factory piece?

...Also, do you have plans to make the switch panel to the left of the steering wheel ? I figure that if you could make that piece also you would have a chance to change the texture of the pieces & it would good since those two pieces are the only ones that would have to match.

Hi guys...

I am currently making some for the supra guys who have ordered.

I have had to make 2 different molds becoz some guys want it all blank and some want the stock switches and cig lighter on the console.Both molds willl have the double din positions for the radio recessed like the stock.

I had an idea...I could also make the switches housings and cig lighter housing separately and all one would need to do is cut the right hole size and bond the housing anyway on the center console. This way you can reposition your switches and cig lighter.

Good idea?

Cheers,
Roy
