Progress pics of new interior

Looking good! how did you get on cutting it?
spent a bit of time today making a wooden former and managed to make some nicely shaped demister vent trims with some off cuts,
When I've got more time i intend to try vacuumed forming the locost way with a Hoover or in my case Dyson ![](/images//smilies/bigsmile.gif)
I fancy some carbon look rear light housing a bit like the westfield ones but with smaller lights but that's probably a little to adventurous
for the first go!
Someone posted a link on here a while ago with a video on diy vacuum forming buggered if i can find it now though![](/images//smilies/sad.gif)

It went quite well thanks Dave, it was quicker than getting the jigsaw out, when you talk about vacuum forming i guess your using the 2mm stuff.

It looks good though I can't help but feel the best place for the handbrake is the passenger compartment next to the gearstick
Where do you rest your left arm when you're cruising post blat??? ![](/images//smilies/smile.gif)

Yes forgot to mention mines all 2mm stuck to the ally panels, so no rivets on show and should stop it rippling in the sun!
The dash is 4mm.
