Another picture.
Pulling out the climate control unit and painting that tonight. I was unsure about it when i did the rest of the dash but now i know its a sticker. So im going to fix that up. I also need to paint the shifter surround and hopefully it looks alot cleaner then. I run a bit of armorall over it and it looks tones better.

I havnt had any problems with marks. I was scratching out the buttons for the trip computer and i keyed the face of the trip computer but you can hardly see a mark. I also find that the stereo things rub the dash hard when u put the stereo in and it was fine after that.

For better results try www.knoxautocarpets.com.au For $165, I got a brand new, black plush pile moulded carpet, including postage. The black would never wear off 
I have painted my dash, and my trims black, but am not using any dye on the high wear areas (ie the carpet and the seats) I will be getting the seats retrimmed in black leather (at the moment they are cappa leather) Just a thought

A lot i see are actually a front half and a back half that have to be applied over each other... How was the fit?
