Hey fellas,
Looking for the cost and process of swapping out the burl wood dash and consul to either carbon fiber or piano lacquer black. Thanks in advance for the advice

I wrapped my dash in CF vinyl two years ago and hated it. A few months ago I removed the CF and had the dash painted Piano Black. I love it! Very elegant and timeless. Depending on the body shop, you can get yours done anywhere from $100 to $300. Here are a few pics as well as a link to more pics of the dash.
This image was before I had the new screen faceplate paint matched. It's now Piano Black as well. (Please ignore dirty interior)
Here is a link to more images of the dash

thanks bro, just checked it out, didnt see the dent nor the scratch on the car, 4 prev owners doesnt look promising and it doesnt have the PP. Also, he is asking for some steep pricing figures....$56k is...ouch

Yeah the scratch a.d deny are only visible by the close up pics that I asked for. Either way too much $ for what u get and the carfax is also suspect.

I remember this vendor posted that he does wraps and plasti dip stuff here he wasn't far so I checked out his site and he had some nice pics of the interior done. I may do mine matte black also as I don't care for the wood grain look at all.
I'll probably do mine, but I don't think I'll do CF maybe just a nice medium gray. Luckily this guy is local so I can just drive over and see what looks good.
