Interior finishers

[sabretooth]

As some of you know, I've successfully put an NB interior into my NA. As part of the NB dash you get the airbag cover. Of course, mine is blown. I've stuck the 'flap' bit back down in place, but obviously it doesn't look the best:



Does anyone know of a place that's handy with vinyl and would be able to re-cover it with the appropriate stuff, and make it look factory? I've been given the name of one place that could do the job, but would like a few others so that I can compare quotes. Cheers.

Whats behind it sabre?
if there is enough room you can glue some flexy 12mm plywood (curved to shape) to the back of the panel and recover it yourself with black vynil

Shouldn't be that hard to get a similar matching vynil

better yet you could make it a hinged panel and use it as storage place for sunnies etc

only reason for putting the wood behind si so that when you re upulster you can staple the vinyl on rather than just glue it to the plastic as glues don't survive well in the direct sunlight and heat cycles.

sunnies holder would be sweet.

some of the hiluxs have a storage place there factory.

ive also seen a car with a three gauge cluster there mounted on an angle looking towards the driver... look very cool.

There is a motor trimmers next to Rob Bliss Exhausts in Virginia... I've had heaps of stuff done there for my IMP and it's great quality.

Heritage Motor Trimmers (I think).

Behind it - empty! I've had a few suggestions to make it into a compartment, and it's something I've considered myself. Problem is that I don't know where to start with that, and how to actually make it look decent.

Thanks for the suggestions
