my buddy had a textured dash in his Camaro and it looked awesome, but it was all black. Maybe it's just the color choice people are not liking.

I'm thinking if I saw it in person I might like it... As of right now, I'm not forming an opinion until you are finished with it and have more pictures.... People on here form an opinion WAY too soon. He's not even finished with it yet...

People dont form an opinion way too soon, we wait for pics and then we look at it and see if we like it or not and then they tell the person their opinion. Im not a big fan of this paint job either......you can clearly see that the paint looks very weird on a dashboard of a car. Its unique, which is cool, but it just doesnt look right.
Most people on here give opinions when they see pics, and everyone is honest, which is nice, cause you dont have people lieing to you when it doesnt look good............
Yea hes not finished but a lot of the people are trying to help him by saying DONT DO IT, they are trying to save him from doing something that would look horrible. If he likes it, then he will do it, but there is a chance that when he gets the whole dash done that he might not like it, and then it would be a hassle to re-do the dash.

Finally got some more pics.
Ok, I finally got most the painting done, I forgot to do the hazard bezel and I didn't get the passenger vent out till today so there's no pics of that. It actually didn't come out as bad as I thought it might IMO.
Of course I did take off the masking tape before I sprayed the clearcoat so the the black on the center console and a couple vents look a little nasty but they'll clean up just fine.

yea, definately not diggin it dude, but w/e.. why the hell ask opinions, it is your car... who the hell in the right mind would sport something someone else likes rather than what they like themselves. great job if you like it though!
but if other's opinions matter that much i'll tell u one thing, those tribal scorpions gotta go. they are worse than the stone paint.

I couldn't say better than this.
On the side, are all the parts only hold by clips that you can just pull out? And for the vent, does it comes out with all the stuff in it or only the cover? ( I don't know if i'm clear enough sry )

The vents come out with all the stuff inside if you do it right. I was doing it in poor lighting and couldn't get the center vent out so I managed to pop the front trim off. The front trim unclips from that though. The center console just pulls out after you remove the shifter cover. Check out...
