does anyone have a dash cover?
 
I want to get a decent dash cover, carpeted or suede. Any recomendations? Thanks :)

My recommendation: Don't.

A 370Z is not a 1970's conversion van...

I have a carpeted one, it is pretty good. I have to have a sun protector and dashboard cover because I live in one of the hotest states in the US, Florida.
Here is mine, but I haven't fix it to the dash.

I bought it from ebay.
If you want a more recent picture, I could always upload another one.

No, it covers everything except the light sensor. To be honest, I was not aware that those things in the front of the dashboard were speakers. I haven't upgraded my sound system yet, I have the base model.
Overall. I am quite happy

What about your passenger side airbag? Covering it up like that is not a good idea. Best case it slows down the air bag and it is not as affective. Worst case the air bag turns the dash cover into a projectile. :ugh2:

No, that won't be a problem because it has a cut out for that. Besides the material itself is not really that hard, it is very soft and malleable. Even at high speed, it will not be as hard as the airbag hitting you in the face.

I just ordered a "coverking" brand from "auto accessories garage" It gave me the option to have the cutouts for the top speakers and both sensors. Of course I took the speaker cutouts option.
It should look decent enough to cover the imperfections. I also got an estimate on the labor cost of replacing the dash top, omg it is pricey,the labor alone is $1107. @ 8hrs. Thier cost for the part well exceeds the labor at $1600.! Over $2700. total!! F that.
I can get the oem part for $960. if I really want to get it done. I will see if I am happy with the $41. cover first!
