Cracked Dash Fix

Hey All,
My dash on my 07 TL is starting to get a good amount of cracks on it.

What are some solutions that you all have found to fix it?

Thanks all

Replace or cover up. What the eye doesn't see, the heart doesn't grieve over.

Haha Yea I was hoping to find some sort of filler that I can use. I am open to adding some filler and than painting the dash.

Thanks for the input peter6. If I can not find a good filler option the dash cover is my next option.

Thanks

Don't use filler. It will have a different coefficient of expansion and crack even worse and faster next time.

Get a dash cover like this:

It fills out the dash nicely, covers what the Coverlay doesn't, and looked better.

HA!

I have this one in my watchlist, just in case I ever need one (my GS's TL is parked outside, so....someday...?).... mine are all still good.
