I think he is talking about the actual dash not the upper dash that always cracks. I have not seen anyone wrap the actual dash and make it look stock. Something always looks messed up.

But 00-02 dash is ebony and thats close to black

Look farther into the thread. He basically wraps EVERYTHING.

I had mine re-covered by a local shop:







The bad part is after one summer, the edges started to come up a bit, so gonna have to bring it back to them and see what they can do with it. Hopefully I dont have to pull it all back out again for them to be able to work on it...
