replacing instrument panel

Using photoshop and illustrator, I was trying to follow the directions on toyotacorollamodifications,com

I don't know what kind of paper to print it on. I'm afraid if I use regular printer paper it won't look quality, but if I use photo paper, I don't think enough light will shine through. Has anyone else tried replacing the instrument panel colors? I have a design, but I don't know the best way to go through with it. Thanks.

That's pretty funny. Definitely a personal touch. I would think you could take it to a place that does reprographics and get it printed on mylar or clear plastic and could get a thickness close to stock.

Weird - I actually know the guy who came up with this how to, on a Ford Ranger forum I used to go on about 6-7 years ago. Small world.

Kinda odd seeing it on a toyota website, but if you follow the directions it does work though.
