How to Repair the Dashboard of the Alfa Spider

Model: Alfa Romeo Alfa Romeo Spider MK 1 - Years 1995-2006
Part: Dashboard

With the help of this brief video tutorial, you will learn step by step how easy it is to restore the dashboard of your Alfa Romeo Spider. First, use a craft knife to dig deeper into the cracks, allowing the more fragile parts to be removed. Now, with a router, widen the area further to create a V shape for filling with filler. Once the hollowing out is complete, proceed to fill it. Start by filling the central areas to compensate for the void with filler, then fill the sides with expanding foam and finally level it. Apply filler again and allow it to dry, level it, and finally paint.
