    my dash is blue! HELP

    Pretty sure my dash is supposed to be black, and i want to return it to black.. but not sure the best approach, i fear spraying it will ruin the texture, and the last thing i want is a smooth glossy dash...

    Any ideas?
    I plan to pull the dash tomorrow, and hope to have a plan of attack by the time its out!

    pretty easy.. don't dye or paint the dash. just get a black one and sell the blue one(if anyone buy) the steering column is a PITA to move the dash through. after you past the steering column, its just a piece of cake.

        It's UV damage. And it's always exacerbated by a camera flash.

            I sprayed my dash and center console flat black almost a year ago with duplicolor vynil paint and had/have no problems with it to this day! It looks really good and no one ever looked at it and said its painted, ppl just comment on how clean and crack free my dash is! Just spray in light coats untill you get the color you want.
