Welcome to IRV2! It's great to have you join the gang here!

I don't know who makes the Dolphin but you might want to post questions over in the Owner's Forums or other MH forums for best results. Hope you enjoy the forum!


Good luck, happy trails, and God bless!

Well the rig is blue with faded graphics & worn carpet, with white leather seating. Me & the wife would like to change the graphics to black & orange ( to match our boat )and go with black carpet & window valences with wood or vinyl flooring through kitchen & hall. I know black is a little dark for an RV ( as friends tell me) but thats our gig.

We have yet to do anything to the exterior of our motorhome. We are planning on re-striping the outside, but haven't decided if we are going to do it with vinyl strips or paint them on. The interior we have redone almost everything. I have an album posted on IRV2 that you can check out if you want to. I know that looking at lots of photos of other motorhome reno's gave us some visuals as to what we liked and what we didn't. We did laminate throughout and love it so much more than the original carpet. The only carpet we have now is the carpet in the drivers area, which is new too.

I'm also doing some tile work in my in-laws motorhome. There is a thread that I started that has been following my progress on that project.

If you are logged in on a computer you should be able to go to my profile and find them. If not I will post some links for you tomorrow.

We have a '05 Dolphin. We have the floors in a bamboo flooring.

Have fun with it! You bought a well built coach. It is generally much cheaper to upgrade vs pay the depreciation on a new one.

Welcome to the site. Enjoy your new home on wheels!
