This project took longer than expected since I had to work almost everyday for the last week. I was finally able to finish it and get everything working properly. I ended up getting a new 7" touch screen in-dash dvd player b/c my old tv died on me. I guess the project turned out ok. I had some trouble getting the wrinkles out of the fabric I used, so that aspect looks kinda crummy. I might try to rewrap it one day, but it is a huge pain in the ass.

** I ended up ripping off the fabric and resanding the piece, and then painting it. Came out much better that way**

nice work! I think the shape you were trying to make was a little tough, but hey, that's the fun of this hobby isn't it?
