Posted August 25, 20231 yr comment_656276 The panels that came with the car were in very poor shape so the owner has sprung for a full set from Palco panels, they arrived today. We only placed the order a week and a half ago, good customer service, lots of communication. From what I can see, for new panels they are pretty much the only game in town. There is this guy, https://jpfibershop.com/producto/datsun-s30-240z-260z-280z-full-rear-interior-trim-frp-version/ who says he can make you a full set of panels for $400, but I just can't see that. Too good to be true and the photos of his work don't inspire me with confidence. So here are some pics, the plastic is just slightly thicker than the originals or it could just be that the plastic is new, the colour is perfect to my eye and they are painted, the pattern is an exact match. I test fitted 2 panels and some small trimming will be needed but so far I'm very impressed. I've got a bunch of other stuff that has to be done before I get to the interior but I'll post pics when I get to that part.

August 25, 20231 yr comment_656277 Those are looking exceptionally nice, the well-defined grain is awesome! I'm all of us will be looking forward to your comments a the time of final installation.

August 25, 20231 yr comment_656278 They look really nice. I'm tempted to get a set just to have on hand given how brittle the original panels can be after over half a century of exposure to the environment.

August 25, 20231 yr comment_656279 I think I'm gonna have to do the same thing. Some of my panels are bad and I don't want to have half look new and half look old. I know https://resurrectedclassics.com/ show them also. A whole series one set is close to $1000 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/68519-palcodashtop-interior-panels/#findComment-656279 Share on other sites More sharing options...

August 26, 20231 yr comment_656281 Dashtop.com looks like most pieces are $200. a pop. If their quality is good, it’s a good option. Hate taking my pieces out since they’re so flimsy and brittle.
