Bugeye dash

Country flag
Offline
Has anyone tried spray painting a Bugeye dash? I don’t quite know how to wrap the new vinyl around the curves without cutting it.

Never mind, just looked at it again. Wasn’t formed the way I remembered it.

Your dash looks great! I think I gotta buy more clamps

Thanks.
Some of the smallest radii were the toughest. Having the clips at the right spots is also key to keeping it tight.
I used weldwood contact cement brushed on.

Yes, I used weldwood contact for the dash on my 100-6. Great stuff. Thanks a lot!
