Some updated pics of the 206
 

Last year I decided to start updating the look of my formula I had some upholsty work done...I had a new sunpad done...I also covered the dull black of the dashboard and passanger side with a carbon fiber vinyl and I put in white gauges!! This year I am painting the vents and hatches to white and getting white rubrail! Tell me what you think so far?

Looking good man, where did you get that carbon fiber stuff?

Hatch looks great...guages too. I did the same thing 2 years ago only I went for white panels too :cool:

I can't remeber the name of the place...Ijsut went to google and did a search on carbon fiber vinyl and there were a couple different places...it was on a roll...you can get many diffeent sizes and colors and mopower looking good also!

Looks good. Did you have new foam installed in the sun pad, and what did it cost?

I painted the vents on my 20 Formula with the Rustoleum for plastic. I'm here to tell you it's some tuff stuff. I got some on my arm, and it took over a week to wear it off.

Looks Really nice. I have been trying to update my 311 the same way, but still don't know what to do with the dash. Who's gauges did you use? How hard is it to find the right switch on the dash without them being labled? Attached are a few pictures of my updated interior.

Mopower-
Who made your dash panels?

I did not replace the foam...it was in very good shape. It cost me about 1500 I cannot remember the exact amount...as far as the gauges they are LIDO PRO they were fairly inexpensive and they look very good with the chrome ring on the white...They came out MUCH better than I thought they were going to

As far as not having the labels on there for the switches it is very simple to remember them...plus I think it looks cleaner!

As far as painting of the vents and hatchesI will look into the rustoleum...I have talked with formula outlaw and he has suggested krylon fusion for plastic...it is getting excelet reviews and I have ordered it...I am just waiting for it to come so can get started...I can't wait...my father thinks I am crazy and that I should wait till spring but I can't help it I bought a garage and the boat is fully sheltered I have a propane heater... I am good to go...

Oh and I am also thinking about removing the very thick black stripe that goes aroudnt he back of the boat...I know it will be hard and I will have ot wet sand but I think it will look very very smooth... I am also going to take of the platform and see what kind of condition it is in...I might replace it with an extreme marine one and some nice exhaust tips...what do you guys thing about that idea?
and thanks

Eldiablo-
Thanks for the kind words. I am also 24. I will be selling my boat after next season so when you are ready to move up let me know.
Removing the black stripe of the back of the boat would be a good idea. It will just take a lot of time.
As for the platform idea, I know I am one off the only people that likes the OEM swim platforms on the formula's, but that is my opinon.....Attached is a picture of the back of my boat with the black stripe remove so you get an idea of what it would look like.
