I am planning on painting my engine bay black also.. but with krylon crinkle paint... going to go test out on a small portion of the bay to see what it might look like. Guess I have to start thinking of ways to hide wires. heh. You really did a professional style job, took your time and that's awesome... I wish I could have patience like you when it comes to tiny details.
thank you for the kind words

Yeah, its not the easiest thing, but its not that bad either. Kind of depends on what you have done before. I had to replace a bad heater core on mine. Took me and a friend about an hour and a half to take all of it completely out, and half that puttin it back in. Remember, the FSM is your best friend. Locating all the screws first will save you alot of time. And be carefull with the finishing piece near the windshield.

BTW, this is one amaizing looking sr. Keep up the great work.

the dash and the cluster plus a few other small peices cost me a lil over 200 dollars.
