I wonder how hard it would be to cover parts of the door, dash, and dash pad in fiber glass or how much woud it cost to pay sum1 to do it? is it hard to use fiber glass resin, where can i get it, and how much does it run? i think i will experiment with it.

why dont you go to, AIRCRAFT SPRUCE & SPECIALITY CO.COM and order up a sheet of carbon fiber? they sell it in many different styles and different weave thickness,and i think you can also buy sheets of kevlar. imagine a interior in that? all you would need is a good quality contact cement,and the ability to fold the fabric around the panels you want covered. and then put them back. sounds easy but im sure its a p.i.a. b.t.w, covering the dash is a piece of cake. let us know when its done. p.s....C.F, aint that cheap. if you have any questions ask,and ill answer,ive done alot of this type of instal and know the ins and outs.......
