Fiberglass interior?

[wtfh4xx]

Well I was thinking (I know its usually a bad thing =p)... but I wanted to know what you guys would think if I did like my center console in fiberglass. It wouldnt be too hard I think. I could just take it out, brush on some fiberglass, paint it gloss black, clearcoat it, and it would look pretty sweet?

Any input is welcome...


I could also do my armrests like so?

first off, good luck with getting a good response about that around here.

as far as your armests, why not re-wrap them in tweed, suede, leopard, etc? why fiberglass and paint?

and your aware how much work it is to fiberglass stuff? it's not a simple task.

There is alot more step's than that when you wanna fiberglass something the right way.

I am aware that I would need to remove the rests, resin them, sheet fiberglass, brush some one, sand, bondo, sand, paint, sand, paint, sand, clearcoat.

I was thinking fiberglass instead of fabric becuase if I did anythign else than the stock grey it would throw off the interior...

I wanted to do black suede or something but then I would have to change my carpet color, and then the interioir panel colors, and the headliner, and so on to get it all to match....

i did black cloth and kept my dark grey carpet fiberglass is to complicated for a arm rest IMO
