Hi tengkorak....how it goes arr?? :angry:
 
HI,e30 friends ,the dasboard I saw at chop shop at Kampung Subang ,try go to search and get it back
 
hey how much is it to restore it if I just have a few small cracks?

Also, I'm going to try this epoxy replacement coating which can be dyed to any colour ... its supposed to be tough in the sun ... i saw it and it has smooth finishing ... similar to the poly-carbonate ... was thinking of putting a layer ontop of my dash ... i was thinking that even if its restored ... it will crack again.

going to try this premanent semi gloss on my dash... :D
 
My E30 dashboard also cracked ler when i checked it last Sunday. Hmmm........ i gatal go ask a close friend of mine who worked in chop shops selling continental halfcuts saying that it'll costs me around RM 550 wor. Is it true? I havent have the chance to purchase UDM E30 dashboard before as this is the 1st time i'm owning a UDM myself.

If JDM cars, then should be no problem for me to source for its parts ler. Hehehehehe.........

So, cracked E30 dashboard able to be restored back? How? Even my dad told me that it's restorable & just he's lazy to get it done since now he got another car. Sigh! :(
 
haiya..if cant source a 1/2 cut dashboard frm kedai potong...thgn just go to this place called 'wecolour'...they specialise in leather re-wraps and i think the last time i asked it was RM380 to re-wrap the dashboard with leather...also colour of our choice...not too bad mah...its behind the summit in usj...
 
tyke..want to know about the finished one..u seen it already ker..
kinda interesting what..can cover the crack..got like-original leather meh?
 
dendroaspiss,
bro wht they do is to strip teh old pvc wrap and scrape off the old brittle sponge and thn replace it with a leather(real & not pvc) of our choice...
only thing is tht it wont b as padded as an ori dash....but at least it'll b real leather and no worries bout sponge getting brittle again...
havnt seen it done to an e30 but have seen a few rolls royces and yatchs being done up there though...
if ur interested its between the summit usj and the giant hypermart...
or just pm me...

rgds,
-brad-
