Many thanks

I am also thinking of covering the dash in Carbon Fibre as I can get hold of Carbon Fibre sheets relatively cheaply! Does anyone know how easy it is to shape Carbon?? What special tools would be needed? Also has anyone re-covered their dash, is it relatively straight forward??

Would anyone else be interested?

All I need is the outline trace, so that I can supply a DXF file to have one laser cut in S/Steel, Aluminium etc...

I've had some heel plates with the TVR logo made but haven't fitted them yet...


Dave, if we were to get a template, what are the estimated costs for Aluminium to cover both the Veneer parts of the dash???

Yes I did get the dash lasercut by Leven. They should still have the patterns. If your going to get the switch plate done as well you might consider changing the switches for aircraft style toggle switches like on E Types. Unfortunately I didn't think of it until afterwards.

Cheers,
Simon


Thanks for the confirmation V8esser, can you tell me how much it cost?? If you dont want to post it on here, you could always mail it to me, thanks

Yes I am not sure about the Ally dash now I have seen a few, I have decided to go for the Carbon Fibre dash, like Ballistic Banana. I have managed to source some Carbon Fibre sheet and will probably have it done by end of March! I will be buying more than I need would anybody else be interested in a Carbon Fibre dash??

Let me know.

Mike
