with my buick apart, i decided to take the dash pad out, and see if i could find a new/repo one. of corse they are hard to find, and i found some that are $300 + dollers, way out of my pricerange. then i got an eastwood catolouge and noticed a dash pad restoration kit. my pad is fairly decent, except for a major crack on the passenger side. i was wondering if anyone had any experience trying this, and if they would reccomend it? also, what kind of work is involved/supplys needed. thanks!

I just tried restoring the pad in my Maverick. I was able to fill the crack, but unfortunately, it reappeared after painting. I cheaped out and bought a glue-on cap, but if I were to do it again... Look at the vids on VinylPro's website and you'll see what I missed.

you can check with justdashes.com they can take your dash and restore it to new condition. they also do door panels and other interior part. hope their prices are in the range you're looking for. good luck!!

I heard a guy paid $450 to just dashes to have his Maverick pad redone. Kinda pricey
