Anyone wrapped their dash before?

I've got the material and everything but I'm a bit apprehensive as there are a lot of flats and sharp edges that will require me to sew multiple pieces together to get it fitted properly and I'm a bit worried it might screw up my print since it won't flow. Anyone done something similar before, even if it's a solid pattern?

I've done simple one piece headliners, sun visors, covered pillars, a cafe racer seat and a headrest (most complex that I've done) before, but want this to come out nice, so if anyone can help with the best areas to put my seams that would be great. I included a picture of the sun visors and headliner I did in my old Civic for shits and giggles.

I wraped my whole dash in tweed but it's easy to hide the seams in that

my old s10 was wrapped in tweed... actually the whole interior was and had the foam designs under it.i didn't do it but didnt look to complicated. not sire how it would be to line up the design like you have in the head liner.


btw mazdizzle, nice kawi! my first sport bike was a 97 zx6... makes me miss that bike seeing yours

This was my first bike I didn't start riding until about 6 years ago. It's a 95 with 98-99 plastics on it. I might get it out if storage today and do some riding its supposed to be close to 60

Looks good in the pic. If you get her out today post a good pic of her... I've only got 1 picture of mine and not sure if I can find it (it's in my MySpace profile from who knows how long ago... Don't know how to get to it lol)

It's all good, I love motorcycles too. Let's see some wrapped bikes! haha Though I do have a secret crush on them because they look so oddball. If I didn't ride in the rain sometimes I was going to wrap my plastics for shits and giggles.

I think I have decided to change my dash design up a bit so I can have a more flexible material to wrap the hard contours in and use my material with the design as an accent on the lower parts of the dash and wrap my door panels in it as well.

That marbleized frame looks sick.
