carbon fibre dash
Discussion
As rigga said, cover it in carbon sheet. I did this to mine over winter. Got the sheet from http://www.carbonmods.co.uk/ It comes with an adhesive backing.
It was a simple job (as simple as removing the dash and scrapping off the old covering is!). And was a lot cheaper than a 'real' carbon dash (about £70).
The only thing was that the largest carbon sheet I could get wasn't big enough to cover the whole dash, so I had to use two sheets and join them, so if I look carefully I can see a join line on the dash.
I'll post a pic later, when I get home.

Have you put indicator repeaters somewhere in front of you then Ant ?
And whats that odd dial in place of the clock?
The CF looks smart by the way. I didn't think it would suit our cars but it looks pretty nice. Good work mate.

Thanks Guys....
Had lots of problems with these dashes cause everyones dash/clocks seems to be slightly different, so at the mo I'm not making any...sorry.
But... I'm experimenting with having your original dash covered in 'real' carbon fibre. and laquered. Thus whatever hole you've got will still be there and be the right size. If you get what I mean!!!
Should have some ready for the Growl for you all to see.
