    not that difficult to make.....just time consuming and messy once you start sanding....this one will be staying in my Z

    Benny_C About as subtle as...

    WOW! Fantastic results right there! Possibly one of the cleanest looking double din mods i've seen. the finish is very new and glossy looking.
    Well done to you sir! Can't wait to see it fitted and with a sexy double din sized head unit in there to fill it up. :)

    That looks amazing. Can you tell us a little more. I'm guessing you did the standard cut and fiber glass.....what then?

    once the fibre glass is set, i used spray filler......4 coats with a sanding in between each coat of filler.....very smooth finish...will post a how to thread soon

    And me! You could do a group buy and do them up in exchange for core items as a possible discount.
