: Custom fiberglass vtec controller/gauge holder center vent piece

i decided to just put my stock center vent piece in and get rid of the excess useless gauges...so i'm selling a custom fiberglassed piece that holds a vtec controller perfectly, and looks very nice in there...i got rid of the vtec controller, so gauges also worked and looked very good...

the cons: i painted it with trim paint, and it got so hot in my car (miami weather) that the paint bubbled...also, the little flap to set time one of the little prongs on the side broke so you have to be gentle with it....i made a little cf piece to cover the flap (looks decent)

other than that it fit flush and looks nice...selling for $70 shipped

just enough to get the bubbles out and to get it smooth
so its ready for paint.
and wat paint did u use to match the dash?

alright i'll leave it smooth again, just give me a couple of days...i used duplicolor trim paint, but i think if you use a semi gloss black it'll come out better...especially if you use like engine enamel semi gloss

I have done a lot of interior parts in my Camaro in, get this, truck bed liner. Stuff looks good (even if it sounds redneck as shit) and is really durable.
