That looks awesome! I like the texture!
that would look really good IMO
Oh! I like that too... seems like it wouldn't show dirt as easy either.
It's $30 for a 4x8 sheet. I got it at menards.
I've used some "plastic cardboard" material used for signs for things like interior panels before..its waterproof and looks just like corrugated cardboard,I got several large sheets of it off some shipping pallets free when I was collecting pallets for firewood..

The one thing with the polyethylenes is you can't basically glue to them. That's the same stuff cutting boards are made of, and few glues stick. As long as you're gonna drill/screw through it, you're golden.
ABS might be a better choice if you wanna glue to it. Can also be had with texture, much like the black plastic dashes, and is easy to work. Find you a local plastic shop, should be able to get you pieces mostly cut to size and you just trim the curves and such.

you can run that stuff through a table saw as well
I'm not 100% sure but I think abs will crack easier than HDPE.
Acrylic and polycarbonate can crack. ABS and the PE's are malleable, like, so they'd be dang tough to crack.

Ok I wasn't sure how they compare?
although something bead rolled would probably look awesome, because of the size of the side panels, I'd bet shipping would be insane. Not to mention how they would have to be packaged to show up unmolested.
Sooo, I thought project "CST" was medium blue (no spid on glove box door) but am thinking it is dark blue... just acquired a glove box door from a 72 truck with option "572 white/dark blue" listed on the spid and it looks like an exact match to my dash.
What color blue do you think this is?

That is about the darkest factory blue I have seen on a first gen. I got parts of a truck that was two tone with that blue and white.
yeah, that's pretty weird to have different shades of blue
The thing with this blue is that it looks lighter and darker depending on the light.
