Message	Unfortunately it is difficult to do something like that and make it look like it came from the factory that way. It doesn't look like it was designed to be wrapped in leather and the leather thay used was way too thick. The surface is uneven and the seams are uneven and stick out. I've been thinking about wrapping my cluster cover in alcantara or novasuede or something that would cut down on the glare, but I know that it would probably not look good, so I haven't. That and I'm lazy... I'd love to see it done well though. This is what I see in my mind when I think about wrapping my dash, but I'd love to see someone with a different vision pull it off. -Dan BlackholeZ VTC Solenoid Caps Installation Procedure "Capitalization is the difference between helping your Uncle Jack off a horse, and helping your uncle jack off a horse."
