Very nice! Does the part on the bottom hide the computer or is it for something else?

The part on the bottom is the ash tray  Carputer's in the trunk. Hopefully I can get it working tommorow. I threw the dash piece in tonight, looks way better than i could've ever expected. It flows real well into the shifter, which I also painted silver. One of my friends who works as a mechanic said I could really turn a lot of heads if I took it to an audio shop. Thanks for the positive feedback, i'll take a pic installed in the morning when my brother wakes up (I'm using his camera). BTW, that's my first time really working with bondo/bondoglass. It's just time consuming and you have to be willing to keep at it and do things over if they turn out bad. Thanks again!
