Dash Pad- Covered With French Seam

Just Finished Covering this OE dash pad. Pad was real solid, no curling or giant splits. Covered it in some extra Whisper black vinyl I had. Ran a french seam down the front, polyester thread. Vinyl wasnt glued using some spray can adhesive, this was done using Top and Trim adhesive. Came out real nice.

Asking $300 shipped.

I can do more of these if anyone is interested in saving their pad, just contact me.

Re: Dash Pad- Covered With French Seam

Thanks Guys. A lot of skill and effort goes into something like this. I know repop ones are pretty cheap, but you cant compare a repop or one of those vinyl covers to a pad covered this way. You wont be dissapointed spending the extra cash

Also, what are you charging to cover my pad.

Re: Dash Pad- Covered With French Seam

Vinyl type is Whisper. The lowest I really want to go is $250. If I go any lower Im really not making enough for my time.

If you sent yours to me. After shipping it would be $250.

Re: Dash Pad- Covered With French Seam

Thanks guys. Heres some work Ive done recently. Its one of those things that started out as guys liking the work Ive done on my truck and me doing work for them. Now Im starting to get more and more requests. Obviously none of this work is for a Chevy.lol. Just to give you guys an idea of what I can do. I only do custom stuff, havent really done seats yet, just panels, dash pads, dashes, audio stuff. Most of my work is shipped to me Ive even shipped stuff to Canada.

Re: Dash Pad- Covered With French Seam

I would be interested in getting some OEM style vinyl door panels stitched with Chevy Orange and also interested in getting some visors restitched. Also can you color match OEM vinyl colors and/or dye them? Thanks

I have some local upholstery guys but they are usually swamped with school bus seats and also shoemakers/repair as well.
