new dash sanded and painted pics

Hey every1 i have been working hard on a dash for my 95 & wanted to share
So i found one a a junk yard got it out and started sanding and sanding and sanding on it. This took a wile to get it all smoth but all the texture is now gone I decided to go with house of kolor "Bittersweet pearl" & the factory black on my truck but before i sent it to the paint shop i got a new set of power acoustik tweeters and flush mounted them in the top of the dash. Its not in my truck yet i plan on doing that 2morro but here are some pix so far... What do yall think?

before pix






tweeters


Drilled holes for the tweeters



fresh from the paint booth

sweet!




Im very happy with the way it turned out after i get it in i will put up some more pix

Beautiful job man.... I wonder though, how much glare you're going to get on the inside of the windshield once the sun hits it?
