Default woodgrain dash vinyl

woodgrain dash vinyl

I am buying the aftermarket dash bezels for 68 GTO. My question is who sell the best woodgrain for the bezel? I heard from somebody, can't remember who but said one of the ones for sale shrink. So looking for the good one
thanks Dave

I bought two from PY and they were the thicker, more expensive ones. Have had it on one of the dashes (saving the other for a future dash redo on the other car) for 3 or so years now and it's still perfectly in place. I heard the thinner ones weren't very good so I avoided them.
Maybe Ames has a few from the merger with PY? I would imagine the vendor that manufactured them could be found? Maybe Ames could find out from Chris C. where to get those from and sell them?

Thanks a lot for the help.

You may have seen a post I made about one of mine shrinking when it sat outside during a particularly cold winter (for here). 'They' (PY or Ames) sent me another one and it's still perfect. I can't remember the manufacturer for sure but I believe it was PUI?
