Put a plant pot in it.
Try and be original.
How about Mounting Dials in it ?
Putting a stereo EQ in it.
Some Led lights?
Dancing Elvis?

Could put gauges in there, possibly where the heater vent is. LEDs in the dash to change to look at night.

Could flock it, or sand it down smooth? both look cracking, but the smooth reflects the sunlight

as said smooth it like so
to flock it you can do it yourself out of a spray can but looks poo. or you send it to a company and they do it staticaly charged so the fibres stick to it, very rally slag

i wouldnt say mine is a subtle saxo though.
i have vts running throttle bodies, piper 300 rally cams, forged oversized high comp pistons, forged rods, stripped out back but keeping gti leathers in front. gotta av a bit of comfort still.
i like the look of the smooth dash, look ace. Did it take long?? I take it u took the dash out to do it??

no not my dash but the guy took out the dash, sanded it highbiuld primered it and got it sprayed and then laquered, you always buy a second hand dash so you can still use your car. there is a company that flocks your dash for £? and you give them your old dash (works out cheaper)

that flocked dash looks amazing id amagine it costs quite a lot though!
just paint it!! cheap and easy i had the heater vents and centre console silver and now its gloss back and looks smart!
if the whole dash was smoothed and painted gloss black it would look great imo
