    Did they ever make another run of e30 dashes? I know blunt had the hookup for something like $1300 or $1500. At the time it seemed like a lot, but considering how much a decent set of wheels cost, sounds pretty reasonable for a dash that's gona look nice for another 30 years. Plus IIRC, they are made with e34 materials that aren't known to Crack.

      Mine has been Meguiars #40 for the past 20 years. Works very well and actually cleans as well. Can remove many different liquids/stains.

        I think BMW still makes runs of dashes in newer material.
        They seem to wait until they have x number of backorders and then do a batch of however many. Bump the price, rinse and repeat.
        Mine finally started to crack ~3 years ago, and at this point I'll probably just leave it alone until it's horrific, then fill & flock it.

          615k is not too much comparing that the car is now almost 40 years on the streets.

              Impressive. My 325i has around 400k estimated, cracked dash and all. I've driven the shit out of it for 10 years, 7 as daily driver. They really are awesome cars all things considered.
