They are one of the best when it comes to LX SLR and SS dashes.One of the forum members posted pictures of his dash after it was restored at Dash Original a while back,it looked the goods.

Over $400??? The way the finished product looks I thought somewhere between $1,500 - $2,000!
Have asked them for a ballpark figure for full resto, Ill let you know.

This is the thing i guess, finding a good dash to start with. Look how much the last few good uncut lower SS/SLR dashes have gone for on Ebay.

nope, no one wants to do it. There was one place that would to it, but they dipped the whole item so yeah, imagine that, and they are no longer around.
