i didnt make it... just told the guy what i wanted and let him to his thing... i find you get a better product if you let the builder design it.

Interesting......I will wait until its done to give a final opinion. Just one question. Now that the dash is all one piece, how are you going to get all the wiring mounted?

not really sure how they are doing the wiriing... im sure they will get it to work...
i havent really decdied on the car...
i know what my interior is gonna be ... know the trunk... not too sure with motor and headlights...
we have been toying with the idea of doing lengthing the car and doing a hemi swap...
the headlights.. im liking the g37 headlights... ill know in the near fiture on this... the motor is a longer a harder project

I'd love to do that...well, around the gauge cluster area anyways. I'd love to add an aftermarket speedo/tach and a few other lil necessary gauges surrounding them...just because I've never found an overlay that I've truely liked. I'd want old-school muscle car lookin gauges.
Yours looks pretty bad-ass...but the whole big-screen TV thing is a lil much for me...but I understand it's for show to get points and such. Mad props to ya!

i was trying to do something Different... im not too fond of the gauge cluster in the neons so i thought this would be a cool and alot different idea. ill be picking up the dash tongiht to take to tampa, fl for CF... ill take some pics of it because it should be smooth and primered and will give us a better idea of what it looks like

not feeling it at all, would look better if you didn't have a huge box on the passenger side. overly large screens really aren't all that cool IMO

While it looks cool and custom and all. I just can't bring myself to give you any props since every thing done on that car is done by a shop or someone else.
Do it yourself mang! I don't think I could even call it my own car if I had a shop to all my stuff on my car.
