If you can wait.....I'll be installing this new ABS plastic dash that I bought a few weeks ago. If it fits good and looks good you may want to get one. Its not a cover...its a complete replacement piece.

Im gonna then try to get a good price from the company for a group purchase if enough people want them. Their price is $280.00 on ebay....Im gonna try to get it down to $200-$220 each......

I'd like to see what your cover looks like when you get installed ls6427...I saw one on eBay that was made out of carbon fiber that was pretty cool just pricey

Those covers from lethalperformance.com are pretty clean looking...I may have to look into that when I go to get one...is there one around somewhere that covers the dash down to the vents? I've got a nice little crack starting right abover the center vent to the far right

I bought one about 6 months ago, and was very pleased with how it looked and sat on top. I had a small crack on the passenger side that I was tired of looking at, plus I figured it would help protect the rest.
