Cracked dash / seat covering replacement.

My buddies are building a TL Type S and recording the build process. I actually got rid of my TL because of the cracked dash! Subscribe to their build!!

New dash and steering wheel cover, along with the new driver seat, look awesome. The two metal center console pieces look like shit.

@bzyrice @gatrhumpy

did you hear...the new used dash developed a crack while sitting in the air conditioned space on the lift?
I legit don't want to be right about this sort of thing.

This is why I highly against install used part that well know to be defect. In my KBP the car will receive a brand new dash as I am not going through all of that hassle only to get it cracked shortly after.

Just a PSA, not trying to jab.

Anyway...
@truonghthe we saw a dash cover at the last acurahondaclassic meat like the one gatr used and it looked pretty good

Looks good. But will these dash covers interfere with the deployment of the airbag in the event of a collision?
