All 4 doing it different ways but all look much better than what they had!

Pretty amazing results by all of them.
I like the second guys’ methods for filling the cracks but I wouldn’t flock the dash on our square bodies. May try just filling and painting. Also the option of gluing on some vinyl after.

Don’t feel like spending $500 plus shipping for my bruiser patina truck plus in Canadian dollars that translates to a $zillion.
