Painting My 'a' Pillar Gauge Mount;

[Yeedogga]

Hi all,

I have made a gauge pod out of fibreglass which fits on my a pillar. Nothing special there, but I am aiming for the OEM look.

What I would really like is if I can replicate the texture of the existing A Pillar/ dash when I paint the pod. I'm sure you all know what I mean, the kind of 'crackly' vinyl texture that the dash skin and pillars are.

I've thought alot about it and I can't really think of a way that will work with any real success. SO; I thought I'd see if anyone on here has some ideas..

Otherwise, ill sand back the whole pillar and paint it all a flat colour... which won't look nearly as good :-)

Any ideas will be welcomed enthusiastically!

Cheers
