    I noticed that you put the dash over top of the fiberglass instead of underneath like most have done. Can you explain your thinking on that?

    I did it like that on my own car as I didn't want to look at painted fiberglass inside the glass - the way it is now the dash goes all the way to the window - like a normal car.

    That makes sense! My dash is under the fiberglass currently, but I'm willing to try it your way to see if I like it better.
