Anyone with Suede dash yet?

phunk

i dont dislike suede... but its definitely not worth having a rickety crappy loose sounding interior with poor fitting everything everywhere just to have it... not for me anyway. i see tons of guys that love to ruin their interiors with it. i think about 1 in 50 guys who take out their dash actually take the effort to put it back in correctly. every time i get into a car with a painted or wrapped dash the car feels like a total junkbox from terrible reinstallation and poor fitment on all the panels. i think a common problem is that space the wraps take up make it so that everything else going around it no longer fits properly. i would never hack up my car like that personally, but its points at a ricer show

In for pics.

I wouldn't mind having my dask flocked... although it isn't a race car it would still be nice.

Will have mine completed tomorrow, and will post pics. I have the same worries as phunk, hopefully there are no rattles and installation is done correctly...

Not my car and I believe the suede has been removed from the car also. Sun fades it and with the Texas heat it was not stable.

could you just tint the windshield if you inclined to have the suede dash?

One solution that might help a little would be a good sun shade, using it always would help protect it.

even 5% is illegal, you cant tell its tinted. Majority of guys here do it and companies even offer 0% tint but with 80% infrared protection.

I was told original alcantara doesnt fade?

Alcantara probably would best, it will not fade as much and holds tighter through extreme temperatures.

your tint scale is backwards... the percentages are supposed to reflect how much light is allowed in... i.e. 5% = limo tint and 95% is almost clear. Tinting the windshield would help however make sure you are above 60% tint or else cops will know right off the bat that its tinted... I got pulled over yesterday by a cop who saw my front windshield (which is 60%) from over 200ft away going the opposite direction. I got a ticket but luckily here in ga its like a $60 fine so I am like whatever lol

Is side tint allowed in GA? I drive by both state and local police station everyday I take it to work. In jersey no less. No problem... It isn't a problem until it is.. You gotta pay to play! m2c
