my car has the charcoal color dash and it is really lightened or just light to begin with. i was considering painting it darker but thats too much work and too much of a possibility of it turning out like crap or just not looking good...

so what kind of rejuvinators(sp?) do they make for dashes, which ones have you guys found to work best??? regular armor all isnt cutting it...

and i was thinking, what would happen if i apply some dark shoe polish to the dash peices???

thanks.

The majority of your dash (front part) is metal and can be easily painted. The only problem is getting everything inside taped up. The rest can be removed to dye(paint) and/or replaced.

A 95 Z28 dash is metal? Are you thinking of the right car there, Z28SORR? I've taken my entire interior apart and and 99% of it is plastic. In turn it's pretty easy to paint if you want to go that route.

but the thing is i dont want to have to paint it, is there nothing that can darken it without the whole paint process... and what about the shoe polish thing?

Z28SORR

Doh!! You are of course correct. That is a plastic cover over the metal part.
Don't know what I was thinking.

I wouldn't paint it either. You can try the polish but i don't think that will really work. I would just swap the dash out. You could get a black 97+ dash and really have your car looking good.

there is a paint type substance called SEM dye, its not paint, really actually it dyes the actual part, so that the part then becomes the color you wish, there is a large variety of colors, just try searching google for SEM dye, its usually about $8 a can
