New dash-cover thing I'm working... (long)

OK- 94 that spent all its life in FL- sun damage evident to say the least! No major cracks, but it's a matter of time.
I bought a B.S. AF cover for $30(US) and threw it on- to cover up the embarassment of my Saab- they do cool the car in a HOT climate.
From dash cover to seats- actually the seats are near mint. As the anal Saab owner I am, I opted for covers to protect the leather seats (my oily and funky ass/legs). I went with Wet Okole (out of HI), made from neoprine (SP?). I asked the guy for some extra fabic (with backing).... WOW- this stuff is cool and esaily fits the dash. The heavy rubber back makes it stick (I have a CV) and it 1/2 the thickness of the BS cover I bought. The cut is clean with a pair of sharp sissors.
Even my very sceptical wife admits it looks better than before! Trust me- that's cool!
The seats are still on order- I've heard about some fading problems from the BB and other places- I'll have to live and learn on this one!
I have more than enough material left-over for many projects- step 2: refinish my door side panel in neoprene- testing how 3M spray adhesive works as I write! Next test- glue gun on low heat??
Colors of this stuff run the range- you can request three samples at a time.
When I figure how to post a pic- I will (along with my new grill- red mesh and a semi-gloss BLK border).
Steve
SAAB ON!
