    First crisis with the new E30...

    Come out from work today, get in the car, and the first thing I see when I get in:



    Goes all the way into the storage area and stops. Oh well, one more thing to add to the modify / repair / replace list.
    I'll replace it after I buy my suspension next month.

          If you can't find one, I have one in perfect condition.

            I will buy it from you, if you can hold it for me until the end of the month.

            Please discuss with me further on AIM.

              If I were ever to get new dash pieces I'd amorall them twice a week. Your lucky you guys up there don't get as much harsh sun as Arizona. I honestly think my dash carpet pad will stay there for awhile.

                You obviously aren't familiar with how messy electrical tape can become. Put a piece on your dash and let it sit in the sun for a day.....tell me what happens :P

                Josh, Mine cracked in the same F'ing spot..... except mine is a little wider.

                  My dash is a site to see.

                  One of the many reasons pics of my interior are few and far between.

                  Sold it.

                    Not to worry, Sean is the MAN, and is hooking me up with a mint condition one for a good price.

                    The swap will suck, but I've removed 3 E30 dashes, so at least I will know how. And it will give me a chance to clean in and around the dash really good, and maybe tweak a few things here and there.

                      Mine did tha same thing the other day, sucks cause my dash was perfect too. I estimate it takes off about 3 crank HP so i wanna replace it to gain it back.

                        same thing with me.. its such a clean crack that at first i thought it had always been part of it... im hopeing it will come back together somewhat when summer comes and things heat up but i doubt it

                          And one week after you get your new dash, that one will crack too.

                          Its inevitable in all E30's really...just a matter of time.

                            Armor All = bad.

                            303 Protectant = good.

                              How long have you had the car Josh? Isn't it about time to part it out?
