hi yall, im relatively new with fiberglass and started with my center console for my 96 eagle talon. i used the stock piece as a mold and used matting and resign to create the parts i want, but i dont know what else i want to do with it, or what im capable of doing with it. keep in mind im basically learning on the job, never had any real instruction so im just messing with this stuff for now, but this is what i have done so far, next i am doing the door panels. not really replacing them, just fiberglassing on top of them. here are the pictures, i remove the center console and molded the dash trim piece onto it so its a single piece, and next im going to get my touchscreen to mold onto it.

its not all flat yet but im working on it still. any suggestions on what i can do? i have my gauges mounted on the a-pillar and in the gauge bezel so not doing that. eventually i will mount a turbo timer there as well, and hook my macbook up to the lilliput screen when i get it, but im really out of ideas as far as waht i can do custom on it...thanks and hope to have some new projects soon for your suggestions!

looks good so far, considering you mentioned that you had no prior experience
