GEl coat mold turned out pretty nice, there is a little orange peel here and there but nothing fabric wont hide, hopefully all will stay on track for this weekend shouldnt be too much longer before we have a finished product to show ya all.

 

Any word on the fabric?

Getting excited...

 

no word on fabric going with a different company, pretty disappointed because I have gone with this local company before and they have done beautiful work. Granted it may not be there fault that the fabric isnt in but he said it would be no more then a week. Its been what 3 now?

 

Called both places again and neither has received even the fabric samples kinda shady if you ask me both promised I would have them in a week. As far as fabric goes there is another company Im MN here that I am going to check out.

 

How about my center console idea?

 

I searched your posts but didn't see what you were talking about. What do you have in mind?

 

Matching the pillar pod to the center dash. Texture it and make it look like a continuation.

 

Like paint it silver? I really don't know if that would be a good thing. Definitely can look into it but my questions would be if you paint the one, you have to paint the other. That means wrapping the other one so we have something to get the paint to stick to as well as be nice and smooth like the drivers side pillar pod. The color might also be somewhat of a distraction. Maybe, maybe not. We'll have to see. Still waiting to hear back from the fabric guy so time will tell.

 

Not the silver part of the console, but the dark gray textured part.

 

Dude, that would be so tough to get that to match and to get enough of that material would probably be something short of impossible unless you're Warren Buffet and have 10k that's just getting old. Great idea and it would be sweet though.

 

How about using black wrinkle finish paint? It has a similar texture to the dash.

Jonny, are the pillar pods complete minus waiting on fabric?

 

I vote to wait for the fabric...

 

no i wish I am swamped by Monday this will be my full time job so I am sure progress will just fly. To be honest I am struggling with the mold release, its ruining everything, BE calm lol have another ace in my pocket will post pics this week, am probably gonna need a little more funding as well for finishing this up and fabric, just a heads up.

 

No problem, let me/us know how much more money you need to keep moving forward.

 

Most of the molds are complete fabric samples should be here later this week, I will figure out price once we choose a fabric, also how to ship your pillars to me and what it will cost to ship them back, shouldnt be too much longer guys. Again with this being said the fabric is about 1/16 of an inch thick with the foam backing, should hide alot of the little imperfections if not I may need to do a little more bondo work or tweak the mold a bit once I recieve your pillars......

 

Looking forward to it...

 

please let me know when you have a single gauge pod ready

 

pls keep me updated

singles and doubles will follow the tripple along with the the center console, more too come thats a promise.

 

I thought id get a price on a Chrysler headliner then we could hack it up for the pillars. My cost was like $850.

Never mind on that idea.
