Dont really like the old 'saggy' (first word that popped into my head :lol:) looking leathery look thats kinda felt the sun a bit by the looks of things, was thinking of giving it a sand down, filler maybe and spraying it, NOT shiny, a matte affect spraypaint (im sure they sell 'em, ive seen em before i think, famous last words :lol:) to make it look more like a modern plastic dash any thoughts of the process or seen it before?

With enough lil hints and tips and kinda steps from people could be a handy lil thread i think.

Any thoughts?

Thanks :D


Or if people dont want to go 'all the way', then some handy tips on restoring it because they do fade quite easily as there kinda out in the sun a lot up there in fornt of that big pane of glass :lol:


(Thinking of doing either now as ill have to find time what with A levels, UNi Applications that have to be started around now Meh!, Hope i can fidn the time over a couple weekends)
