zachhern1 Posted January 14, 2011 Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 well I'm working on a 95 dime and I've been gutting the interior since it needs to be replaced...I really want to glass the dash but I don't really know what I should do...should I use the stock dash and just glass over it or is there a better way? I don't know how I would be able to make one from scratch or I would... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skittlesRgood Posted January 14, 2011 Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 you could use the dash as your mold then modify it how you want.

Alex K Posted January 14, 2011 Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 most people just use a skeleton method then stretch the fleece over it. theres a couple fiberglass dash builds on here is there? i'll try and find some...If they do skeletons I need to get an idea on how to do that... its kinda a pita. You have to consider how to mount all your gauges, spedometer, ac vents, etc and take that into consideration when you do it. Going to spend a lot of money in fiberglass, resin, materials, wood. Why not just look for a junkyard near you? Im sure they might have a better conditioned dash that you can touch up with fiberglass, then re-wrap it with whatever you want. Just saying, someone with no glassing experience (just assuming) probably wont make the best dash. Hell, i get scared thinking about door pods lol. Quote 2006 Nissan Z Track.
