          Guys I have a question. Is there any use to keeping my old, cracked dash? I'm thinking of selling it but I doubt anyone would actually buy it. Would it be better to just throw it away?

            How bad is it? I think soon enough, a repaired dash will still be worth money

              I don't really know how bad it is haha. It's the stereotypical cracked E30 dash. Has a crack in all the regular places.

                I'll take it if you want to get rid of it. I want to try and see if I can repair them. I have another one too Im going to give it a shot. Im going to try Barry's technique with plastidip, and another Im going to flock since I already bought a flocking kit

                  Hey guys last week a driver that was texting rear ended me and totaled my b5 a4 dd. I'm currently trying to fix idle and rough running issues on my e30 as well as prep an m52 for a swap. Progress is slow though because I don't have a lot of free time and I'm learning as I go. Anyways I need a new dd and I have about 8k to spend. Anyways just wanted to see if Anybody has any recommendation or better yet any leads (has to be rwd or awd and manual).

                    If you weren't hell bent on awd/rwd, I have an 06 a3 6-speed I'd let go for $4500. PM me if you are interested.

                      Alright, let me know if you really want it because I don't really have anywhere to put it as of now lol.

                          But a weathered dash like that won't it crack again?

                            The cracks get filled with a special goop. then I plan to spray one dash with plastidip to retain the OEM look and the other will get sprayed with flocking stuff for the fuhraze look

                            edit: Anyone local who can powdercoat some small parts? Nigel used to be able to help ,but that ship has sailed
