    3M Dinoc?? Looks damn good from what I can tell. You use 1 large sheet over the dash and a heat gun?

    Here is one more to show how much it shows the light. Its pretty neat looking. NO its not perfect I feel like i took an ORIGINAL approach ive never seen before tho instead of paint.

    I think it looks great, and it's awesome that you put the effort forth. I don't know of anyone who's vinyl wrapped a 97-03 dash. I was going to at one point (still have about 10ftx5ft of dinoc left) but decided against it cause my dash is crack.

    I've used it before on some complex curves, but nothing like yours. Did you get much distortion around the AC vents?

    i used a razor to cut through the vents when once i wrapped over it and then heated it up to shrink it, failed a few times and then started to get used to how much heat it takes to remove bubbles/ wrinkles and got better. Its not all ONE sheet but i made sure i matched up the pattern. the most difficult part was by the DIC on the corner and the fog light to get it pretty close to unflawed. I don't think ill do it again lol

    Nobody except you will notice the small imperfections. It looks great man...and I know it takes patience. You have a serious ability to tolerate mental pain bro...Kudos on the job.

    Looks good. I'm planning on taking the hydrodipping approach because I don't have nearly enough patience to do that! lol

    If i had to do it again i would do hydrodipping too. A local place 30 mins from me does it for 100 dollars. Thank you for all the kind comments my friends!

    BTW I DID do the center console and cupholders. Would you like to see?

    I think it made the car really come alive inside and looks Original and unique! I'm, just waiting for a sunny day and to get natural lighting to really make it shine in a picture but this is all i got for now
