My dash bad has a couple cracks and a small piece missing on the passenger side and a crack in the corner on the passenger side, is there any way to repair this?

Thx

 

Look up http://www.eastwoodcompany.com , they have a dash repair kit for large gaps. I had a small crack after my accident, I used a Permatex Professional Dash Repair Kit, $15 at Pep Boys. The crack came out good. I think you could "fill" a large area with cotton ***** or something. The kit came with different containers of different colored goop, "grain pattern" sheets, and an electric heating iron. (The non-professional kit had a non-electric iron, you were supposed to heat it up against a clothes iron! Screw that! For $5 more I got the one with the real iron, looks like a soldering iron.) Anyway, you blob the goop (for us, black) into the crack. Then you put a matching grain pattern sheet over the blob, grain-side down. (The grain pattern puts the little dots in the repair, as opposed to making a smooth repair.) Then you move the iron over the top of the grain pattern to harden the goop.

 

I tried the same thing on my old pad, with the same kit, in fact. Well with the extreme weather changes done here in VA (like 30 in the morning and 70 in the afternoon and like 50 at night in the spring) it eventually recracked the "goop" in the same places. I just bought a new pad and a dash mat to prevent it from carcking again. I have grown youst to the carpet on there and it looks cool to me

 

Wow, that sucks! How big was the crack you fixed? I've been lucky with mine, so far... but it was a small crack, and it was at the side of the dash, so I guess it might be a bit in the shade.

 

I've given up on the dash. I've replaced the damn thing 3 times. I refused to cover it with the dash covers because they look tacky. One day I intend to find someone who can carbon fiber dip it, or make one out of fiberglass... or some other composite fiber. Plastic just plain sux.
