Carl,
A few years ago, Prestige was the dash supplier to VB, and I think Moss, for
the "original quality finish" dashes. Don't know if they still do it but
he'll actually finish the dash however you like it. Even if you don't like
the high quality finish....you have to love the perfect fit :-)

Subject: [TR] re: Prestige Autowood for my TR6 - choice of veneer?
Hi Brian, (a third option)
How about a nicely restored ORIGINAL dash .. those Prestige dashes are so
high quality it can be like hanging a gorgeous crystal chandelier in an
otherwise average apartment.. The dramatically higher quality can cheapen
the rest of your interior.
Prestige is better suited for brand new Aston Martin's interiors in my
opinion.
The original TR designers chose materials and colors with great care to
create a beautiful and balanced aesthetic - why not honor their fine results
by restoring an original dash to 'as new' condition - it will look great!
Regards,

I'm thinking of ordering either the Walnut Burlwood or Fiddleback Mahogany
dash from Prestige Autowood for my TR6. If anyone has photos of either of
these veneers installed, can you send them - or the web link to them - to me
off-line?
I'm of course interested if anyone has an even better option than these two
choices.
Thanks,
