I was able to checkout my dashes direct vinyl over foam with metal structure dash today. Mine looks great as well, very sturdy, no waves or anything in the surface. The left side of the cluster side seems to bow in slightly as well, but it shouldn't be too bad. Looking forward to installing it in the next few days when I get a chance. I didn't buy new clips, going to attempt to reuse the old ones. I'll update on how the install goes.
