Re: 96 ecsb build

I wanted black interior in this one since my copper one has almost white interior and it sucks to keep clean.



black suede headliner




escalade console armrest that I wrapped in suede


also did the door inserts in black suede


I wanted to just dye the dash bcause it would have been so much faster but I couldn't find a dash that wasn't cracked. So I decided to fix the broken dash and smooth and paint it.

There was about a 5 inch long crack on the top

got the dash painted today, going to buff it before I put it in, still need to paint the glove box door and all the other dash pieces which take forever to smooth out

Looks great I really like what your doing. I really wanted a escalade front end on my 4x4 just something different.

I pulled my dash out but I'm having problems trying to figure out where to start to fix the crack and keep the rest of it falling apart mine only has 2 little cracks in it and I couldn't find a good replacement either how did you do yours
