Would that be "Flocking" head gun and paint scraper could do it. I'm sure there are others out there that would know the best way.... Post up a photo or 2 so we have a better idea of what it is!
This is the ugly stuff i was talking about. It looks like elephant skin lol http://www.vwwatercooled.com.au/foru...DSC_1765-1.jpgQuote:

You can take that layer off, and there is smooth plastic underneath along with sound deadening gunk, but you have to think hard because you'd be losing a couple of cm of layering so it's going to mean things like your air con vents will exceed the boundary of the dash...might look silly, and remember the airbag is covered in that stuff to... and never mess with the bag. Might be better off finding a thin covering to put over it.
check the vortex, but dont take that off - it will look like ass and ruin the car.
buy this dudes suede one - VWVortex.com - super hot and sexy - MK3 suede (alkantara) DASH !!! NJ
or if that aint your thing - find a mk3.5 cabrio dash and swap it in (it has dimples insead of "elephant skin")
VWVortex.com - MK3 interior ideas??
I want to fiberglass it and paint it to be honest! Thats what I was wonering if it came off
A LHD dash isnt going to be of much use over here...
I'd like to see some pictures of flocked mk3 dashes... I'm getting ideas haha. Having a spare dash and all
A LHD dash will be really useful for him though!Quote:
