i was talking to an auto upholsterer who came into my work the other day, and i mentioned using alcantara to trim my dash, but said they would not want to do it as the adhesive fecks the fabric up, so i would just like to know what adhesive was used to stick the alcantara?

Cheers

Ben

For the people who don't know, my younger bro's retrims car interior panels and ICE installs in his spare time and decided to do my dash one day. He's even done an Evo 5 dash which looks the bollocks and also Coxie's dash.

I can't tell you how much the alcantara is but if you want to pm me i'll gladly discuss it off line. But all i say is that the geniuin stuff retails for £90 per frabric meter.

The person who told you that it fucks up the fabric is talking out of his ass! The only time this would happen is when you buy fack alcantra. The stuff my bro uses is the real stuff 8) All of my install and interior is done in alcantara and there's enough people on these forums who will vouch for his work!

As for the glue, my bro uses industrial strength glue which can not be brought domestically. At a push when he can't get any he will use Timebond but it's not very good.

[gtirmouse]

how much would it cost to get that amount of alcantara and thinking of doing the door cards aswell

 

[Mr GTiR]

do u have 2 take the dash out or can u do it in the car?

nope the dash has to be taken out and fully stripped (it's quite an easy job, not as bad as i thought it would be )

p.s. PM sent fella

 

[Mr GTiR]

For anyone who is coming to Trax and wants to see an example of a dash my bro has trimmed up meet me on the Octain Junkies stand (or the second stand for the GTiROC) and we'll have an Evo 6 with the dash retimeed in black alcantara. If i'm not there then it's a black Evo 6 on 17" OZ.

If you really want to see this dask pm me for more details.
