Default Dash Panel

Does someone know where to get these for a reasonable price, or what a good replacement for that shitty plastic would be..

I found a place that makes Dash Covers that match the Interior Carpet, I'm looking into that. It's like $50, hopefully it works out well.

Thanks man.

I didn't see anything one Ebay..hmm..

Mine cracked when I was lifting it up to run some wires for my Shift Light. It shattered in a million pieces.

This is what I found, it's for my model specific..but they have the newer ones as well..
