Kermit is going to be our 'forever car', there is already talk of our daughter taking it to Europe for a gap year (she is 13 at the moment!). With that in mind, we want to slowly get Kermit really special - I'd like to start with a wooden dashboard (hubby wants different door cards, but he can wait).
So - any recommendations for companies / websites who supply and fit wooden dashboards for new T2's?

Hi VWiggy, and welcome. I don't think anyone has found a company that does wooden dashboards.....yet.
A lot of members have painted theirs, and you can see some pics if you click on 'search' at the top of the page and type in 'painted dashboards'.
Love the colour you picked btw, but then I'm biased.

If you want a wooden-look dash I'm sure that's something a wrap company could sort.

I would love a real wood one... but have looked at some photos as Dizzylizard suggested, and painted looks good...

We got ours covered in leather (ish), looks good.

We've painted a few and they look great. Some of you may remember Project 1's dashboard?

Yes, I remember Project 1 - whatever happened to it?
