Carbon-fibre dashes?
« on: December 08, 2005 - 08:24:11 AM »
Too over the top for me but definitely wild looking. Maybe for the guy that likes a little rice with his fish?   :o
If you were ever in an accident that thing might hurt.  :eek4:

You may be able to coat it with something to make it look very original, my son is in a coating business and he has some things I'd love to try on that one! Looks good but that shine has got to go!!  :eek7:

Any idea how much these are going for?  :dunno:

Depending on the price, this would be great for a race car, since the price of a repo is close to $700 dollars.  For the purpose that he is using it for it looks reasonable to me.

I think that they look neat, a modern look for a 36 year old Cuda. But the price is too rich for me!!   :o

I'm in agreement with Plum6Pak, way too shiny! As a matter of fact, I got to wonder if
they have driven a car with the dash like that out in the real world? The glare off the inside
of the windshield must be aweful in certain light conditions!! Possibly to the point of dangerous.
At a minimum the top should be coated with something matte or flat. Just the glare off a freshly
armor-all'ed stock dash can be bad. No thanks!  Jeff

I would also be worried about having a accident with the carbon fiber dash. The shine would have to go and if they could sell them cheap enough then they may sell.
