And now I'm finally updating my thread. Thanks to the entire planet being forced into isolation I've taken a chunk of my day to try out a budget trim idea I came up with while haunting ebay.

First thing I ordered back in January was this stuff -

Then this -

I didn't want to go overboard with the carbon fibre look film and I also felt like it needed something to bring a little detail to the interior. The end result was -

The self adhesive stuff looks decent. Pretty close to the quality you'd normally find in a car interior. The red trim strip simply tucks into the gap at the top of the door card. All up I got enough to theoretically cover the entire top of a dash if you had to fix one that was badly cracked and 5 metres of trim strip for just under $20 USD. I did try the trim strip around the the dash bezel but I wasn't sure if I liked it. I went to town with it in the Hung Dog wagon and it works in that dash and centre console (the COVID's encouraged me to sharpen up the wagon so I bought an early Tiburon steering wheel, covered it with a real leather DIY stitched cover, made my own quick shifter and replaced the head unit with a nice JVC 4 RCA channel out multi media/disc player and fixed a number of little gremlins that have resided in the wagon for ages)
