How many birds are too many?
« on: September 13, 2022, 12:47:32 PM »
When I ordered my dash mat I was going to add a bird to it but my wife said I had enough birds on the car, what do you think?
  • 1 bird on hood
  • 1 bird on center console lid
  • 1 bird on cup holder
  • 2 birds, one on each floor mat
  • 3 birds, one on each seat cover
  • ----
  • 8 birds total
I forgot about the horn button and shifter button so 10

I'm siding with the Wife on this one.  A 2nd gen bird dash is a work of art in its own right, and doesn't require anything else.

Actually I'll probably go birdless if I ever repaint my 71.

She definitely was right, now that I have it on the dash, it doesn't need anything more.

What about the sail panels, rear bumper, spoilers, or fenders? Any others outside Rich? How about the drivers shirt, and jacket? Wallets? Rugs on walls? It's a movement. Pretty soon they'll put you on the group W bench.  :D

How did the dash mat turn out and what brand did you go with?  Any pics?

I need to look into them.

I need to look into them.

I went with dash designs, reasonably priced and they were recommended. The mat is great, looks good, fits good.

The picture is it just laying there, I still needed to add the "velcro" to the dash so it laid flat.
