Mr Sam Posted November 25, 2006 Report Posted November 25, 2006 so so sweet the modern dash bits fit in too
ninja_alex Posted November 25, 2006 Author Report Posted November 25, 2006 Thanks Guys for the response, currently building another one too for track days and drifting! The Dash is made by a company called ETB and are very reasonably priced, i have the same dash in each of my cars, they're that good. Yeah, working for a F1 company, i can make and get all the nice bits like the carbon fibre strut brace and dash etc, but it finished the car off and makes it fairly unique. Hope to do many of the shows with it next year, so will see a few of you guys i hope. Alex
Awesome Al Posted November 29, 2006 Report Posted November 29, 2006 That looks nice m8, did you do it yourself?
