    If this is on a race car, why do you care if the dash is cracked?

        Get a used dash with no cracks. Filling cracks doesn't work and i don't really like the dash cover from bav-auto. Ive tried/used both.

          get a dash cover and shoot it with flat

          problem solved.

          or fg/cf dash with a nice shot of clear flat on top

            body filler, then sand it smooth, then wrap it in satin, non glare vinyl.

                          You can get a top of the line CF dash from Competition Concepts. (www.competitionconcepts.com)

                          I just bought my FG dash from Peschmotorsports (http://www.pesch.cz/bmw/bmw-e30)
                          It's not show quality, but great for a track car.
