PostSubject: Dash-ing about   Dash-ing about EmptyTue Sep 29, 2015 9:50 am

Hi everyone.

Having nearly all our Ronnie personalised we are now going to have our dashboard painted with a bit of leather thrown in but..... just need a bit of help with deciding what to paint where. our colours are red and white, the top of the dash is going to be red, the part that fits between the top of the dash and the front where the dials are is going to be red leather with white stiching, and the front where the dials are is going to be white. The not so sure bit is... do we do all the facia including the dials, the glove box cover and the air vents in white also... or do we finish them in red to contrast the white..... thoughts and any pictures are appreciated.

I would say go with the contrast idea.

Contrasting could look good

Timmm, if you do a search for 'painted dashboard' you'll find a description of mine and some photos. It comes under the Kombi Kreative section. Hope it helps.

Hi hh.
cheers, yours looks good thanks, just get a bit better idea when you see a picture of something rather than imagine it... did you remove yours to paint it?

No I painted it in situ. I removed anything that was removable and then painted with a steady hand allowing plenty of time.
