Default TVA Dashkit installed

Here are the results. The kit comes with contact cement, but I chose to use 3M double sided tape instead. There were no fitment issues, it was well packaged and painted! Thanks everyone!

There's no apostrophe before an 's' when you're talking about the plural version of a word. "I took some neat photo's!" is NOT correct.

Is the upper dash a cover or is it a replacement? I'm definately going to do this for the Turbo S. Anybody know what the color code is of the Turbo S interior? I want my dash kit to match my color inserts.

The color codes for that dash kit i'm pretty sure are from the exterior paint colors. If you want it to match hte grey inserts of the turbo S seats, I'd go with a non-metallic silver.

This is true they match the exterior colours and yes it is a cover(upper piece) from tva just like the consol and the main dash piece!

Thanks guys! I have to say it was a real eye opener once it was installed, it made the interior change from stock to "Holy Crap!" as one of my buddies from work said.

They sell carbon fiber look ones though. Or you can buy one unpainted as well. I just don't like the price. I can do a similar job myself for well under $50 on the existing dash and console. However, this is not to knock the cover at all. It's perfect for the people without the time, patience, skill, or will to do the job themselves. The brushed aluminum one is tempting however.

ok ok, well i have the patience, skill, and will to do it myself, its the time I dont have. I work as well as go to school, the money was there, and plus I can return it back to stock if I ever wish to do so(not likely but good to know its doable).

Of course! Oh i hope you didn't get offended by that. I am SOOO aware of the time issue. It takes me weeks to do anything with the car as i work two jobs. The time is such a major factor. My next girlfriend is going to hate my car i have a feeling.

Yours looks great though!

I think the console runs $120? You can find all the pieces here and I think they might have your color!!

Looks good, but you should've had a body shop paint it. It is extremely easy to pull all the dash pieces and it only cost me $150! Plus it looks as though it came from the dealer that way.

I dont know that this doesnt look like it came that way, everyone whos seen it thinks its a factory part. plus i didnt have to rip my car appart and drive it around with no dash while it was being painted, I honestly think this is the best of both worlds. But thats just my opinion.
