Just a small update,spoke with the dash flock company yesterday,wanted to find out how i should leave the dash for them,they said it would have to be all one colour for better coverage,pref matt black,so i have now got the dash into a high build primer,this i will sand down in a few days and spray black.
I also filled in this mould line on top of the dash
All degreased and ready for primer.
A few shots in primer,get a better idea of it now in one colour.
All smooth under here now
Will add another coat tomorrow on certain areas.

Thought I was up to date on this thread 
Just went through all of the last page as I had missed that
Quick question mate, I guess the polybushes are deflex items? Mine I have ordered are the same, but in the pic, what are the long thin looking things? Don't think I got these in my full kit, did you order these especially? 
Keep up the amazing work

It might be a bit to late for suggestions but when looking at this pic i just thought shame he didn't make a baby version of the gaugecluster surround.
This would make it more oem like and make a nicer whole.
On the practical side of things having a bit af fibergalass extended over the sides like with a gauge cluster for protection of the sun
Good luck
