dash layovers

these are stickers right? how satisfied are you with them? do they stay on with out peeling even in heat? do you have to remove the wood grain to lay over and install or just stick on?

it would not make much sense to have the woodgrain come off, I don't know if you have ever had the woodgrain fall off but there is nothing there. and by the pics it looks like a sticker.

I believe he means the ones such as the ones offered by Dayle at www.planetsvx.com. They are not exactly stickers, they are basically a piece of plastic with an adhesive backing.

I have the aluminum dash kit 2, and I am very happy with it. The woodgrain pieces do not need to come off, but I did anyway, then painted them with silver paint to fill any gaps that the overlay does not cover. Click the link in my sig to go to my locker, I have 2 pics there of the kit installed on my car.

Yup, it's a piece of carbon fiber with an adhesive backing. Had I done carbon fiber I probably would have painted the dash black.

If you don't have either of those, I'd use the Krylon Fusion paint

Either way it doesn't matter, you won't see much of it.
