    What do you guys think i should do, should I cover all the metal window trim in it as well or would that be going a little over board?  I will also be doing my door, rear panels, and center console in it also.

    I would never have thought to eliminate and fill the center dash speaker, but I like the idea!  :thinkerg:

    Looks awesome, although I was a little suprised that you didn't add speakers in the A-pillars while you were covering them.

    I actually did think about adding tweeters to the a pillar but didnt have any on hand and I probably will go over it again in a later time since I have plenty of material left and it really only took me a hour to do them both.

    Man, it would have been easier for everybody if Chrysler just did it this way from the beginning.  The conformity of the material looks great on the A-pillars.  It'll be nice to see how the door panels work.

     :wow: That stuff looks great. That is how a lot of custom interior shops start their business. I have a few questions about the kick panels. How close is the parking brake to the speaker since it sticks out a little farther? Is it going to rub? Is it possible to relocate the parking brake if it does rub the speaker?
     You could do the back speaker dash, console, headliner and nearly the entire interior this way. Great job. :cooldancing:

    The parking brake will not work with these kickpanels unless it was modified some how. I have a couple of ideas to make it work but I have a car show this saturday and will have to wait to do it.

    I like it. How much less $$ than a new pad was it?
