Worked on the car last night, started pulling the dash Appart, I decided that if I'm entering the car in car craft and plan on showing it a lot I need to do a deep deep cleaning of the interior,
Amy and I decided I have a lot of work to do not only to the interior but also the engine bay and exterior to get it to the point I want it to be for shows,
I plastidiped the bezle piece that goes around the guages ect and now peeling it off, becuase it didn't look any good,
Amy peaking off some dip
So basicially be prepared to see a super clean interior and a bunch of sudle touches to make this thing stand out
Edit*** O yeah note to self without the flashed button you have no turn signals lol

More progress
Amy was being a goof last night was excited she got a big chunk off!
Now onto tonight!
More dash parts come off!
I really need to get a wheelskin or new steering wheel, this one is pritty toast
Before life of the top part, (have cleaned it before but that was just wipedown nothing deep clean wise)
All my clean parts waiting to go back on,
Cleaned everything with mild soap and water them hit with black magic int detailer,
I really do hate most of the black magic products but I got this one stupid cheap on clearance so thought I'd give it a try, and well I like it!
Leaves a nice matte finish, no oily,greasy waxy residue

The Pro Shine Protectant or something like that? Yeah, I like that, too. That's about the only thing that doesn't make everything look greasy.
Looks good. One of these days I've got to tear my down, but all of mine needs repainted, there's a lot of scratched up pieces.

Dash all cleaned up and back in, center console is going to take some work.... Whatever the dealer used to clean it seems to have left some ugly staining
Did a small mod to my cluster bezel aswell, may get another and do it again IDK yet,
The back side of the panel right above your feet by the pedals....

I just bought a dremel tool today so that should make it easier. I'm going to try it again soon
