33 Outlaw cockpit update
Well, my 98' cockpit was showing signs of her age, so I decided to play around with it since its late fall here? Still in 70s!
Came out pretty well!!
Pics to follow, but this is what I did.
Covered all dash panels and glove box in white carbon fiber vinyl.
Made NEW Gauge panel and put GPS in middle, had to relocate fuel gauge down by halon indicator! Now I can see it!!
Put new decals on glove box, center of switch panel and key panel.
Changed color of gauge rims from Teal to Silver, removed teal from cup holders (polished underneath!), covered angle bezel for depth guage with the carbon vinyl, repainted bolster backs (white where hand rails are) also used Duplicolor Fabric spray to change all light green and pink to gray and black.
(Vinyl will last another season or 2 until I have XT make me some skins and completely get rid of teal.
Came out pretty good!

Thanks, I used 1/8" aluminum and covered with vinyl. I used heat gun and folded on back side to make sure it didn't lift on edges.
At first I used a piece of cardboard to lay out the gauges, and made a rough template, then I bought a piece of poster board from Wally world that had graph lines and layed it out a gain and cut it out. I used that to transfer to the aluminum and cut out with hole saws, etc.

Coudnt find a pic of the poster board template. The fuel gauge was the center gauge that I relocated.
