Jooboy Posted February 18, 2010 Report Posted February 18, 2010 My dash is cracked (holey crap I didn't see that coming) and replacements seem to be near impossible. I know that there is the ordering thread here but before I pass over some hard earned I'm just wondering if anyone else has had any different ideas (modifications) that can be done. If not I will just have to be a patient man and wait Quote
Bamboo Posted February 18, 2010 Report Posted February 18, 2010 You probably need to mention WHAT CAR. I know you know, but do we? Dude, I'm not taking it out on you but info is required! Rolla's from 67 to 2010 the worlds most popular car leaves a few options. Sorry Quote

B.L.Z.BUB Posted February 18, 2010 Report Posted February 18, 2010 Just cover it in Frangipanni stickers.... Quote

Taz_Rx Posted February 18, 2010 Report Posted February 18, 2010 Build an industrial style alloy dash or get it covered in leather or vynil. Both would probably be more expensive than the ones available in the sale section though. Quote
JiP Posted February 18, 2010 Report Posted February 18, 2010 There is a place in Acacia Ridge that does dashboard restorations. Would set you back around $400 but they recreate the dash from scratch. Quote
MRMOPARMAN Posted February 18, 2010 Report Posted February 18, 2010 theres a joint in coburg (melbourne) that does dash restos aswell. did a great job on my mates esky. id doubt he (or anyone else for that matter) would be able to match the original grain, but would probably find something so close, no one would know/care anyways Quote
towe001 Posted February 18, 2010 Report Posted February 18, 2010 Dash mat. Simple. Can get a pre-made one from an auto shop or DIY one from Spot Light go to the fabric section and have a wonder - vinyl right up to that fake tiger print stuff from the 70's. Quote
Raven Posted February 18, 2010 Report Posted February 18, 2010 I will be importing some more dash pads for the KE2x series. Register your interest here Quote
Jooboy Posted February 18, 2010 Author Report Posted February 18, 2010 I will be importing some more dash pads for the KE2x series. Register your interest here As you may well see the last post is from me :hmm: just keeping my options open but if they are coming soon and are going to be cheaper I'm in. Cracked dashes are just hideous. Quote
sam k Posted February 25, 2010 Report Posted February 25, 2010 try getting some suede, or get it flocked which is like a fuzzy kinda look, and it can get in anywhere. could be expensive though. Quote
MRMOPARMAN Posted February 26, 2010 Report Posted February 26, 2010 (edited) shag pile carpet on the dash and some fuzzy dice for the rear view mirror would go down nicely Edited February 26, 2010 by MRMOPARMAN Quote
