    finally a little interior progress.. new gauges etc..
    « on: June 22, 2011 - 01:07:43 AM »
    Making slow but sure progress on my interior.  Just finished install of new dash, gauge cluster, steering column, steering wheel, and gauges.  Just scratching the surface but its a start i guess.  thoughts and  comments welcome.

    Very nice!   :2thumbs:  Did you hand fabricate the dash yourself or buy from a vendor?

    "usraptr" = United States raptor - bird of prey = United States Bald Eagle.  FYI, somebody else thought of it first so I had to drop the "O" in raptor.

    Looks great!  Better layout than XV's copy.

    I'd paint it however texture black for the ultimate stealth look (and OEM look).
