Sounds like a meaner version of the ISF, super cool!!

What gearbox is it?

[@dragonballsee]

nice dash how did you do the suede design?

[@bepstein28]

I was an absolute pain in the ass. I used a heat gun and putty knife to remove the existing coating down to the yellow foam. The material I used is called Unisuede that I purchased from www.yourautotrim.com/ and then I used some Weldwood Landau Contact Adhesive to stick it on. It ust took a bunch of time and stretching and cursing. Good Luck.
