I like that. My eyebrow pad would be much easier as it is smaller and only has a couple cracks to fill. Biggest challenge will be getting the paint color right. My main dash pad is in pretty good shape with the only bad area being in the far right end under the A pillar. I guess the answer is to do both at the same time. Thanks Dave, looks like I've got a plan.

Has anyone re-done their own dash pads? I priced getting just the small eyebrow pad on my 63 Ply. done and the cost was $365! I'm cheap and like to do things myself when I can. I have quite a bit of experience doing custom upholstery with naugahyde and experience doing thermo-forming with plastic. The biggest problem I'm having is what material to use. The original seems to be a plastic without any backing, which is different than vinyl upholstery fabric. If I could find the right material it would be easy to make a vacuum table to do the job. Any suggestiions?
