wait what? Arent you in Japan? You lookin to ship something all the way here and back?

well theres that one place in Jersey that does it from a pretty good price, like $150 for a full dash. Im about to do this too. if there was a place in the bay area I'd be down to do a group run,

BTW, for those of you that dont know, heres flocking, its like a suede/alcantara covering process. Looks ****in awesome

For about $150 you can buy everything you need to do it yourself multiple times over..I was going to get into this but I'm going to wait till I pay my car off before doing anything like that. Now if the shop does electrostatic flocking then it would be worth it..

Yeah I know what place you're talking about Jeremy. Broken Motorsports is a vendor on RS25 and they're in NJ but can't do it until spring they said...or whenever temps reach above 60F.


btw - its just a small piece of aluminum I cut out to hold my 60mm gauges below my radio in the double din area, so I don't mind sending it out and waiting. Broken Motorsports would do it for $20 but I'd have to wait

haha gotta see how much some spats go for....they're fairly easy to come by with just the spats themselves...but the hardware has some oki rust on em if you know what I mean so you may need to visit your local home depot for supplies

Flock it, I am down. Let's get this and flock around with this stuff, see how it flocking works. We can practice on my '95 dash since it's getting tossed. Can do the Justy too just for the flock of it.

I will talk to my neighbor...he used to invent accessories for mini coopers and scions and has a mother flocker...he has nothing against RWD AWD though, I promise.

maybe i can get him to loan me his machine and before you know it i will flock up your whole cars interior lol

I need this before summertime glare hits my eyes while driving thru the redwoods on a 1.5 width road with retards who dont have their headlights on flying toward you.
