   I'm going to get some prices and see what the deal is, I'll also enquire about the door bins which I'm yet to purchase.

    Apart from it looking shit nothing.
    
    Flocking is part of the stipped look I'm tempted to get a dash from the scrappy and have a play with it chop some bits out of it,fit some gauges and flock it.
    
    Col- How mush is the flocking costing you?

    what advantages do u get from flocking coz surely the rally slags wont do it jsut out of looks as they would rather put the money towards a performance gain?

    You have a point it is more of a style thing than rally slag so does go against the ethics to a certain degree but it does have a use it stops the sun reflecting of the dashboard and blocking your view.
    
    So its a good style whore rally slag combination.

    i would think as long as you spray it nice and even with a couple of coats it would look fine
