Does anyone know if you can get sheets of adhesive plastic which looks the same as the standard E30 dashboard?

I want to cover my tatty under dash trim, but want it to look the same as the top section.

yes you can. speedline graphics and signs.

but it looks terrible unless you cover the whole dash. in which case you might as well get a good dash and do a swap..

Cheers Dave.
Fixed my old one by cutting a section off the old dash and gluing it on.
