Most people don't like their wooden dash inserts.. and tend to go for the much sought after and rather tasty R/aluminium inserts.. but has anyone on here had their dashboards flocked yet?? - It's quite common in motorsport (reduces glare etc) and is pretty cheap (comparatively speaking).. tons of colours to choose from as well - here's examples of flocking (it gives a textured effect - almost swede/alcantara like): Subaru dash: Image Image Gauge pod: Image Dash and A-Pillar: Image

I found a site Con-Vert that has some prices: http://www.con-vert.co.uk/prices.htm probably give you an idea/ball park r.e. cost.. different colours: http://www.con-vert.co.uk/colours.htm Golf MK3 done in blue: Image although there does appear to be quite a lot of companies that can do this.. i would imagine its like anything else - that you get good companies and bad - so best look at their work first if possible or go on recommendations etc.. I think, if done right it looks pretty good though.. :)
