DIY dash pad repair

Hey everyone, I decided to do a dash repair b/c mine was pretty bad. I figured worsted cased I would have to buy a new one. I started by filling in the speakers and big cracks with expansion foam. I first glassed behind the speakers and big cracks and breaks. Next trimmed it back and sanded flat. I filled all of the missing vinyl in with polyurethane padded dash filler.

It took a few coats to get it good. After the filler I painted it with a vinyl paint and then truck bed liner to fix the texture differences.

I think it came out pretty good. My truck isnt the nicest truck around. Its just a project for my son and i once hes old enough.
