3M Paint protection Film, if you ship the dash panels to me after painting, I can cover them with the film that stops them from chipping if something is dropped on them. copy and paste my site link and it will give you more info. I'm having the site overhauled so it may be tough, I'm going to be doing Craigs new truck for him next tues...if my tint guy ever calls me back

Interesting.....but I've never scratched a panel before. What about the sun? Would it yellow or something?

Kev.....I'm not sure about that. Panels on top of the original one? Hopefully I'll see you tomorrow and we can talk about it.

Nort - You've done the hard work. I'd just take the loose panels to a decent sheet metal shop and have them copy the shape and bends, but not cut the holes. Now that you have them out, it should be easy. Once you have all the gauge and accessory holes in where you want them, you can have them painted/powdercoated to your heart's delight.

Bet that boat looks like a LOT of wiring with those panels out....

The 3M film is 99.8 % clear, there is a slight discoloration on a pure white surface as the film is clearcoated, similar to paint. It comes with a 5 year warranty from 3M against it though. In over 15,000 vehicle applications I have never had a warranty claim for discoloration. I just did a couple of the cars for Team Lexus and will be doing the only Lexus IS350 in the country on april 4.
