Looks great!!

What type of panels did you have? I've got the textured gray ones and, I'm not sure if it would work.. Did you still have to take them out, or while they were still in? I've never done tinting or anything :p

Definitely thinking about taking my cloth off and doing something similar to this. Just afraid I'll screw it up, and I can't find anyone that has the cloth panels cheap enough for me to buy to use as a test. Great job hvychvy970. Get some more pics if you can closer up. Looks really good though. Thinking of doing blue as well since my interior lights are blue.

So is yours smooth, I feel like it wouldn't work with the textured surface.

and how did the edges come out?

Yes. I have the smooth panels. This product works on anything non-porus. So no. Do not attempt on anything but a smooth surface. I used a hair dryer on the edges and they look perfect. I just heated them and pulled around the corner. Even on the 90 degree turn on the edges of the dash one.
