A lot of us have them, from a single crack over the instrument cluster to full on looking like the surface of mars. Post 'em up! I'll post pics of my dookey brown crack (That doesn't sound right) tomorrow.

jdm538 · 07-08-2007, 02:21 AM

crack kills fooo....

projekt_s13 · 07-08-2007, 02:37 AM

I got a dookie brown crack too, haha

I will post pics later.

Farzam · 07-08-2007, 04:32 AM

I've never owned a 240sx with dash cracks...

Edgar · 07-08-2007, 08:41 AM

my dash in my car had a HUD and I took that gay shit off

Im going to probably cover all that up with some carbon that we have laying around in the garage

bigOdom1 · 07-08-2007, 08:45 AM

no dash cracks but starting to get some on the door

89dc240 · 07-08-2007, 09:11 AM

My retarded friend got a new dagger and jammed it all around into his dash. Its my car now, I'll get pics when I can.

Ca_laurier · 07-08-2007, 12:04 PM

who cares about a cracked dash, what are you guys car show queens

if you gotta crack, find the most obnoxious sicker to cover it up with lol

eastcoastS14 · 07-08-2007, 12:13 PM

just bought a 95 from the original owner no cracks in the dash and still has the tape deck in it

2iv0 sx · 07-08-2007, 12:48 PM

Haha I remember you talking about making this thread last night at the meet...

foursidenine · 07-08-2007, 01:02 PM

BustedS13 · 07-08-2007, 01:08 PM

i've gone through two dashes in the same 240.... my m30 has a dash crack that looks like the grand canyon, too.

the terrible one · 07-08-2007, 01:16 PM

12 posts and no pics??? let me be the first then.

wanna prevent cracked dashes?? dont use armor all!! just wipe the dash down with a damp cloth. who wants their dash looking oh so glossy like jessica simpsons lips anyway?

Edgar · 07-08-2007, 01:51 PM

me

duhhhhhh

lol jk

armor all is bad, well if people actually knew how to use the shit it wouldnt be as bad

DOOK · 07-08-2007, 03:14 PM

my dash is toast, kinda see em in this picture

chmercer · 07-08-2007, 03:32 PM

mine has the crack from the top of the gauge cowl to the defroster vent

i got a dash mat

**ThatGuy** · 07-08-2007, 03:41 PM

The dash that came with my car was cracked. I replaced it. I have a non-cracked HUD equipped dash waiting in my garage for MrMeph to come pick it up.

No pictures. Use your imagination, and stop picturing me typing naked. You're such a pervert.

C. Anderson · 07-08-2007, 04:22 PM

Coverlay makes a dashcap for s13 now and they look pretty good.

BustedS13 · 07-08-2007, 05:01 PM

wow, that'd be pretty nice, because i don't feel like ripping my dash out again.

C. Anderson · 07-08-2007, 05:14 PM

Its pretty cheap too. They're like $140 or something. Knowing it won't crack again is worth it.

ladiesman8527 · 07-08-2007, 05:24 PM

my dash looks like a rabid cougar tried to mate with it...

kandyflip445 · 07-08-2007, 05:38 PM

I'm freakin buying one of those. lol

ROTTEN EGG · 07-09-2007, 01:02 PM

dammit i just swaped mine.

sleepy_s13 · 07-09-2007, 01:08 PM

I just put a clean dash in my car a couple of weeks ago. It now has a nice crack on it above the gauge cluster.

Wuss, shit takes less than an hour. jp
Not cracking/breaking the heater vent plastics is the hard part.

:P

i emailed them and he said we could get the covers for like 100 a pop if we did a group buy. not sure on shipping yet.

DOOK · 07-09-2007, 02:48 PM

I"d probably in for a group buy for a cover

Farzam · 07-09-2007, 03:06 PM

Don't use products that contain petrolium distillates or silicon oils to clean your interior.

This causes your dash/interior to dry up and then crack.

Both are found in most Armorall products, but I believe they have a new type of wipe without it.

I spend more money on detailing products than gas.

A Spec Products · 07-09-2007, 03:20 PM

I wouldn't know what a S13 cracked dash is

Oh well

jpadilla12 · 07-09-2007, 03:25 PM

Count me in on a group buy as well. Busteds13 let us know!!
