Need some creative help
Ok well a few months ago i installed a HUD in my 2001Z and well the install was pretty easy but i screwed up on the cutting of the dash part. I over cut it a little. So now it looks ugly and i have been tryign to figure out "creative" ways how to get rid of this problem.
I will try and post some pics of the screw up but so far this is what i did.
I ordered me a sheet of carbon fiber VINYL and i wanted to paste it on top of the HUD brakcet and see if i can cover the extra cut but the VINYl is too reflective.
can any one else think of anythign else ? I want to get somethign made of black leather with red thread to go over there but i can't seem to find it.

Don't have a solution to your over cutting on the dash, other than maybe find a used one cheap and try again. Not sure if you could find a vendor that specializes in repairing dashes and see if they can fill in the area.

Talk to Ken at Vette Essentials. He can be very creative with leather. Maybe he can come up with an idea for you. HTH
