We update the car’s torpedo: the use of overlays on the panel

Torpedo, or front panel, is an important part of the car interior. Over time, it can lose its original appearance: scratches, scuffs, fading - all this spoils the aesthetics of the salon. Panel overlays are a simple and affordable way to update a torpedo without resorting to drastic measures such as painting or covering with film.

Advantages of using overlays

• Ease of installation: the pads are easy to install and remove without special tools.
• A wide selection: a variety of colors, textures and materials (carbon, wood, metal).
• Affordability: Overlays are an economical option to upgrade your torpedo.
• Protection: protect the original panel from scratches and other damage.
• Aesthetics: overlays give the interior of the car a more modern and stylish look.

Types of overlays

• ABS plastic overlays: the most common type, available in a variety of colors and textures.
• Carbon overlays: add a sporty and dynamic look to the interior.
• Wooden overlays: create an atmosphere of luxury and elegance.
• Metal overlays: emphasize modern and stylish design.

How to choose overlays

• Consider the make and model of your car: choose accessories specifically for your car model, taking into account the year of manufacture.
• Take into account the interior design: linings should harmonize with the color and style of the interior.
• Choose the material: the choice depends on your preferences and budget.
• Choose products of proven brands: this guarantees the quality and durability of the overlays.

Installation of overlays

• Clean the instrument panel: remove dirt, dust and degrease the surface.
• Remove the protective film from the overlays: place the overlays on the panel and press them down.
• Align the pads: Make sure they fit snugly against the panel.
