This link is pretty much what it looks like stock and I want it to look better. to tell you the truth Im really going after looks and alittle bit of performance, but mostly LOOKS and I this this looks awesome.

ok well first thing you need to do is disconnect the battery (you dont want your airbag popping) next you need to remove any panels you want to smooth out and paint.
after you have removed the parts take some 80 grit sandpaper and rough up the dash and other panels its going to look like its making little timy hairs or freys but thats ok
if you want to mold in anything special like a ps2 or guage pods, go out and buy yourself a cut off wheel or a dremel set
then simply cut out where you want the pods installed and using fiberglass mat and resin mold in the pods
sand down the fiberglass with 40 grit sandpaper then use a good quality body filler and 80 grit then 180 grit to finish the product smoooth .make sure every part of that panel has been sanded otherwise over time the paint will peel off i can not stress how important that is .
then start priming
once you sanded it all down go to your local auto body shop supplier and buy some high build primer(example: ppg k36 primer surfacer) spray 4 or 5 coats on
again it will look like it has little hairs on it but again its still ok
once the primer has dried sand it down with 180 grit sand paper this will take out most of the texture
then prime it again with 4 or 5 coats of high build primer
once dry sand with 220 grit sandpaper
then prime it again ...4 or 5 coats of high build primer
once its dry sand it with 320 grit sandpaper
if there is still texture repeat the last process untill it is gone
but by this time the texture should be gone
finally go buy some good quality paint spray it then clearcoat it
and for some really high quality show car shine , sand down the clearcoat after it dries with 1000 grit sandpaper and put on 2 more coats of clear , then wetsand and buff ....and you will have yourself one of the nicest interiors around
be creative and dont be afraid to make mistakes...it will happen the trick is knowing that you can fix the mistakes

Have fun and let me know how it turns out
