Default Dash Panels Are Done

Hi fellas and Merry Christmas, I'm done with my dash panels and wanted to thank everyone for their feedback on how to get the old glue off the panels it worked out great. I couldn't afford the 165.00 precut burl wood with so many other projects that need to be done to the vette. I purchased for $10.00 on ebay a roll of burl wood vinyl, I did all the cutouts myself and sprayed it with a few coats of auto clear coat...I think it looks good, not perfect but good enough for me...again thanks guys and great forum for feedback and help...

Let's put it this way: It looks good enough that if you hadn't told us we would not be able to tell. Great job!
