Hi,
as already shown here https://e9coupe.com/forum/threads/ive-got-wood-veneer-let-me-see-yours.44561/
I started refurbishing some sets of our wood with, in my own opion, very good results.

I did three sets, at least one will be for sale.
We (my neighbour Franz-Josef and me) will fabricate and offer complete new sets or part of the sets which might have to be replaced.
The veneer used will be high-qualtity "european walnut" or "american walnut".
As standard colour will be use the original dark one or a slightly brighter one as shown on the left unit of a 2000C model.

As final gloss we use high-quality "Hesse" products, "seiden-glänzend" (satin-bright)

How much does it cost:
- the refurbished set as shown above will be 2500€
- if you want to trade in your parts "worth to get refurbished" the price starts at 1500€
- a complete new set will be 2500€
- costs for shipping and import tax will come additionally.

It´s christmas time and you did not find an nice present for yourself so far?
With so many options, lean back and imagine how nice this upgrade for your car might be!

Hi Tom,

I have done my panels with a friend of my, and all are done besides the instrument part. I’m really interested in how you managed to get the new veneer around the corner of the instrument part without having the veneer to break/split apart at the sharp corner in the bottom?

Are you using steam, a veneer softener or a mold to get this done?

Thanks!
 
steam and a vacuum bag. the real trick is that the vacuum bag tends to pull the veneer into the gauge holes. we used expanding spray foam into one of the black gauge cones and cut it off flush with the wood ... that worked perfectly to keep from sucking the veneer into the holes
 
....different skills, different approaches..
We neither use steam nor vacuum.
At the area with the holes we just put a board on top of the veneer and use the press.
But: in between we put a strong cloth, which we cut in stripes towards the edges. We abandonedly use standard white waterproof glue. At the edges we apply an even bigger layer of glue and allow time to soak the veneer. Then, criss-crossing the stripes, we force them over the edge, pressing the veneer against the wood. We leave it tightly fixed for a couple of days allowing the glue to dry.
