Custom dash How To fininsh

[fasterpatrick]

Okay, Now that I made it What would be the best / easiest way to make it look good. I've put together a nice piece of glass work to make a molded dash for my cobra replica and I can't realy decide on how I should go about finishing it.
Option 1. Painted finish: Complete it to body color or other

Option 2. Faux factory look: Spray with texture layers and interior color match hope it doesn't look CHEESY.

Option 3. Cover: Outdoor leather look vinyl covering this would be most difficult with the shape, but look awesome if pulled off correctly.

Any other options or Ideas welcome, here are some photos of the part.

Paint it base color to your liking and clear with ppg soft feel paint. Feels like rubber like on a cell phone cover. Looks awesome.

That is probably the one part on your car that I would splurge on. Double-stitched leather (or look-a-like) on that dash would just be plain wicked!

Second choice would be that PPG soft touch paint he ^^^ just mentioned.

x3. I think the double stitched leather would be sick. Hey, if the Recovery Room said it, you better listen. They are surgeons with interiors.
