I saw madcurl post this in another thread, any idea what this dash is. Kinda looks like a modifcation of the Fiero dash. Looks great!

That is Madcurl's custom-made dash. In his chop-top. I don't believe he used any kit or anything, just made it the way he wanted it... It is nice, isn't it. Search around a bit, you should find the build-up thread around here somewhere.

Thanks.

He's made an excellent job.

I noticed a couple of things such as the shape of the dash end where the vent is and the heater controls etc that looked stock hence my wondering whether it was a conversion.

Madcurl is a real craftsman!

Hi Nick!

You're right, another genius!

Some people have such creative vision and are very skilled.

I bet my efforts would look like a kindergarten creation

I dont think Mad'z does very much of his own work... I know of atleast 3 different states that worked on it...
I could be wrong though... (I am most of the time)....
Still it is a very sweet Fiero... He has 3 choptops and a big checkbook...

Madcurl is a real craftsman!

Thanks for the compliments but, the credit goes to many various builders around the U.S.A. The design and layout of the dash was by me but, XS Customs in FL did the job. The center console is from West Coast Fiero in Marina Del Ray. I had or asked them to extend it towards the radio. Not totally..."custom" but different. The center consol contains various parts from different vendors. The gauges are from Dakota Digital, gauge holders are from a speed shop, shift bezel and leather boot is from Dodge parts dept. It is from a 2003 Viper. Auto shifter and sterring wheel is from MOMO. The "cup" holders are from Watson's Street Works. The fiberglass interior parts are from V8Archie and seats are from Mr. Mike's.

The dash also contains various parts. The vents are from a 2002 Audi (parts dept), speedo and tach are from Dakota Digital, and the Caddy pod was from D1S. The Carbon fiber wrapping around the front speaker and center grill is from Matt's Customs in Largo FL. The "whole" idea is built around the stock Fiero dash. So that may be why you see a few---Fiero points. I might have miss a few more items but, you can review the long build-up on this thread. Enjoy.
