What up!

I have an 87 2.8 camaro and the top dash is cracking. Will any 82-92 dash fit?


Thanks

I need to know this as well.My wife's 90 model just developed a crack in the dash also.

 

Any Camaro dash will fit.

they will all fit. The early Camaro dashes were slightly different, but they will still work fine.

hey, my buddy's camaro had a huge chunk out of the driver's side corner, but he FIXED IT! I don't have the details yet, but i saw it today and it looks really good. He took wall spackling and filled in the hole and molded it to the shape of the dash corner. Then he used a 2 part epoxy superglue on top of that. He just touched it up real quick with some flat black spray paint. Then he armoraled the entire dash and it matches great. The only difference is that the dash has a textured look while this spot looks smooth. What we are going to do to it is re-glue it after we sand it down some and while the glue is tacky, press down some sand paper on it to give it some texture. Then it will dry looking even better. I will get pics sometime, but i was amazed that this worked so well, and it is hard as a rock so it will hold up great. I would say it would be worth giving it a shot before you buy a new pad, if you don't like it, you haven't lost anything but some time.

I did a similar repair on my drivers side corner. I glued down around the chipped area, then filled it in with some plastic welding epoxy. I then darkened it with a permanent black marker but wasn't satsified that it was black enough. I then filled it in with a black crayon (similar to a wood repair with a brown crayon). Finally I covered the whole dash with TurtleWax Tirewax. The dash looks really good and the damage is bairly noticable.

 

Kits are available to repair a cracked dash. Look around. Black should be pretty easy becauce you won't have a hard time matching the color. They come with a means to add texture to the repair.

 

depending on where the crack is, you might be able to cover with a wood or carbon fiber dash kit--i got mine from www.wooddash.com
however, if it is on the TOP, the pieces don't go there, so it probably wouldn't help
