g2(look under parts section), foliatec?(something like that), and dupli-paint?(something with dupli in it). these are all made for dashes. they claim to dye the dash rather then to just putting paint on it.

Rep Power: 0 On my old 99 ex I used high temp engine pant. Washed the peices with soap and water, rinsed with rubbing alcohol. Then I put 4 coats of the spray paint on, let dry in between. Then I did 3 coats of clear coat, and let dry in between. Worked perfect and lasted on my car for 3 years. No cracking, fading or peeling.

Rep Power: 416 i just saw your car, it looks pretty nice. are you planning on finishing the rest of the dash? and did you take it off(the whole dash) or just tape around it when you painted it?
