Yea you might have to sand it down then. I didn't sand mine, they were just faded, so I wiped them off with grease and wax remover then sprayed them with the dye.

I think the vinyl would be nice. I wanted to do mine the same way, use some thin carpet like for speaker boxes or something, and do the kick panels, lower doors, and maybe the door panel or dash.

I wanna know how people do the dash in material without it wrinkleing up or whatever.

Was yours one piece covering the dash? or multiple ones seamed together? Was it wrinkled anywhere before you removed it?

If I know it won't wrinkly I'd remove mine, buy some carpet or vinyl, and do it. I just worry about a wrinkle and fadeing. I don't know what you could get that wouldn't fade.

I been thinking about making a post about covering dashes with material, so I just might so I can find out info and options.
The couch cushion is still on the dash and it's one piece with foam under it. I'm holding off on pulling it out just yet in case they pulled the dash pad off when they put the fabric on. Once I pull it off I may make a template with it in case I want to put something a little more calm on the dash.
