i had 2 dashes here and one was really bad so i figured i'd see what existed beneath the padding.
lo and behold there is a plastic shell that looks exactly the same as a stock dash except for above the instrument cluster.
obviously without padding its not legally compliant in regards to crash protection but i'm a bit lenient with those sorts of things, in reality my seatbelt should top me from hitting the dash anyway
for the weight loss junkies the padding weighs less then 1kg which is the lowest increment on my digi scales :lol:
if you are handy with fibreglass you could make something special of it but i don't care much for that, i'll spray it black and fill the gaps with ally inserts. if you are careful when you take the padding off (use a pint scraper) you could really leave it bare as its already black and is a passable in appearance, i scratched mine a few times so figured it better and neater to paint it.
pics tell a better story
plastic bag has all the padding shite in it
its a free mod and looks a lot better than the arizona mud flats dash rocking most ADM's
