Aye, not a fan of this myself either... its just too rough round the edges at the moment. Needs something to tidy it up, cos atm it just looks like you attacked the dash with a dremel I reckon it could look really nice with a bit more work though!
good idea i had the same, but as i thought some jobs are best left to the profesionals.
maybe get the dash flocked or something hopefully it will conceal the roughness.
good effort though mate
