I live in Washington and Could drive to Seattle Area. What would it cost to get a center console covered with local pickup? I want to cover it in black.
G1 interior urethane components fabrication process briefly explained.
BJB TC-895 2-part black high temp casting urethane. 6 minute work time. High heat deflection rating. Will not warp in hot summer weather.
RTV silicon mold. Sprayed with Ease Release to prevent sticking/pitting and extend the life of the mold.
Straw vents installed to provide reservoir of resin & air bubble passage during injection. Reservoir of resin is need to prevent air draw back due to resin leakage between the mold halves.
After mixing the 2 part urethane vacuum is applied for 1 minute to remove air bubbles.
Urethane slowly injected with a large syringe on an elevated surface. Resin is injected at the lowest point. Vents are installed at all high points.
Pressurized at 60psi until urethane has solidified, about 20 minutes, to reduce remaining air bubbles. Mold is immediately transferred to an oven and cured for about 8 hours at 190* F.
Cured components ready for de-molding. Any remaining bubbles will be on the back side which will later be filled during subsequent mixings.

Seriously to those who have installed the G1 dash and door panels in their Fiero;
Can you PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEZE post some pics of the completed dash/door panel installation? I want to see how the dash aligns with the door panels to help me determine the color scheme I want to go with on my G1 interior.
This is a beautiful design and I can't believe no one has posted photos (at least that I could find!) of their awesome new interior!
Thanks in advance......

Hatching another Fi355 nose. Save time & not create dust by trimming edges with a razor before laminate gets too hard to cut. This time I was a little too late so I had to use the dust thrower power saw.

This rear console came in for repair and upholstery. It's condition was the worst I've seen. Cracks, broken tabs, missing frame sections and peeling all round the lid and bottom edges. It was pretty much a gonner, but something in this shape can be salvaged with some effort and screws, rivets, adhesive and ABS plastic sheet.
Have you had a chance to take a few pics of your G1 dash with the G1 door panel installed together? Look forward to seeing how well they are integrated together.
THANKS

Same here....just got my 88 GT in February 2019 and would love this dash and nose piece! Do u still make them by chance? And can u possibly offer a ballpark figure on prices by chance? Thank u in advance for any and all info! 😀
Looking for the dash kit for the 355 look. Do you still make them Rob?
I'll have available on Ebay the very first fi355 interior that I made ( photo on pg. 16 ) that was used for testing & fitting purposes. Once I get some repairs done and get it cleaned up it'll be up for auction. I'll post a notice in the mall when it's up.

just realized the bumper on this page up above that amida was working on was MINE . i feel special now lol. Amida did i miss you ebay auction has that happened already ????????
Most Fiero rear consoles that come in for upholstery require repair work. Usually to fix peeling/de-lamination, and repair broken mounting tabs. Usually about a days work. I have two good consoles on hand if yours is too far gone.
