Re: [PROJECT] Laidout53 Part II
Here are the details of the modifications that i made this weekend. First i started to mold the dash in. after that i worked on the door panels to make the dash flow into the doors better, so the dash doesnt look like an after thought. Next i modified the glove box dor so it matches the angle of the dash to again make it flow better.
Heres the pictures ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Next I hand formed the door accent panels. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() And the veiw thru the back window opening ![]()

Re: [PROJECT] Laidout53 Part II

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Still have to tweak the gaps on the glove box door, still in progress. What do you guys think? Justin
