In the Kirkham there is no padded dash. The dash panel is aluminum. I dont know alot about fiberglass and don't know if this will work for you. But here is what I did.

I applied contact cement to both the panel and the leather. Let the cement dry on the panel and stretch the leather over the panel when the cement is barely tacky.

Go slow make sure there are no creases.
Once the panel was completly covered I trimed the excess leaving an inch wrapped around the back of the panel.

Very important........let it set/dry for a week, at least. The leather will shrink. Score the holes for the guages at this time. and your done.

Like I said,not sure if it will work on fiberglass. Best of luck
enjoy
