Dashboard insert flocking

Most people don't like their wooden dash inserts.. and tend to go for the much sought after and rather tasty R/aluminium inserts.. but has anyone on here had their dashboards flocked yet?? - It's quite common in motorsport (reduces glare etc) and is pretty cheap (comparatively speaking).. tons of colours to choose from as well - here's examples of flocking (it gives a textured effect - almost swede/alcantara like):

no idea? - if you Google dashboard flocking you should be able to find a company close to you for a quote etc.. :)

I found a site Con-Vert that has some prices:

although there does appear to be quite a lot of companies that can do this.. i would imagine its like anything else - that you get good companies and bad - so best look at their work first if possible or go on recommendations etc..

I think, if done right it looks pretty good though.. :)
