Dash caps- where to buy?

[chartoo]

Hi like most ppl i got a really cracked up dash in my 260z. Ive looked into the repair side of it but i was wondering if any1 sells a cap. I can find plenty in the US for LHD dashs but none for the aussie zeds.

 

Ideas?

Dash caps (half caps) tend to look tacky in my opinion.

 

Your best bet is to try someone like this:

If you have a daily driver, it might be best to source a second dash to send off.

yeah i had seen that but i was a bit reluctant to pay the $600 i think it was to get it done. Was looking for a cheaper option in the cap

I believe Alfa Motorsport Fibreglass has them.

My advise is to fix it properly. Don't go the cheap option and cheapen your car. You will be glad you did years down the track. If there is one thing I have learnt. Suffer the "expense" pain and do the job right the first time then you won't have to re-address the problem again down the track if you start getting right into making your Zed a fine work of art.

another option if couldnt be stuffed paying big $$$ for reskin.

i couldnt be stuffed paying that much money plus ive seen reskinned dashes crack bubble after only 2 or 3 years. i wouldnt be happy about that after paying 600 for it.

 

but if u want the so called almost "factory" look even the reskin is different grain to original.

caps i agree with other guys it just makes it look so cheap.
