Now I know i can put pictures on here I have put one on of my Wood effect dashboard. I always wanted wood in a old car and this is the best I can do! It is only stick on and if you look to close at the edges I do have some ripples but overall I got the effect that I wanted for less than £10. Yes I know my washer switch is missing

I must say a lot better than i thought it would look. You should be proud of a job well done.

It is just stick on wood effect sheet that I bought on Ebay and it was around £6 for a roll. I tried to use a heat gun to get it to stick better on the bends but the angles are going all over the place

It reminds me of the earlier dash because of the colour. Looks surprisingly good. Nice work.

Looks a real touch of luxury. I was thinking when I eventually get round to restoring the interior of my car, I'd go for a mini-limousine look - sort of understated pimping! So, plenty of wood (would this wood effect work on the doorframes too I wonder), deep pile carpets, drinks cabinet....ejector seat....
