Scored this today-

I just wiped it off with a wet rag, it still needs a good scrubbing and some 303 Aerospace. But it's the right color and most importantly, not cracked. It was only 20 minutes away and i paid (marginally) less than what a dash cap would cost so I'm pretty happy. The lighting in my basement sucks but the two dashboards are the same color.

Thanks Jared, I'm pretty excited about it. That cracked dash has irked me since the day I bought the car. I actually didn't mind the dash mat, I just hated knowing what was under it. Finding a Regal dash that wasn't cracked in the right color that wasn't 1,000 miles away for a reasonable price has taken a lot longer than I thought it would.

How easy it was to spill all your peanut M&Ms into the dash vents...

I didn't find any good candy in the ducts, just an old AA battery and some coins. No drug paraphernalia though which is a departure from the rest of the car! I'm gonna get some 303 Aerospace Protectant on it. If anyone knows of anything better let me know.
