so yea i got board today and saw my ugly kicked in speaker grill... so i decided to do some fiberglassing on them to make it a little cooler. i did a lil bit on it and will post some more pics to. This is after working on it for about 10 min.

I aslo used a old stretchy blanket cause i did not have any fleece nearby so i get to look at some cool old school blanket blue for a bit

yea the dash is painted white and green, its not to bad of a glare but im going to repaint it all as i painted it in the garage in the winter and was to cold for the paint to stick well. so im going to change it up soon.
