Hi Guys,
How much are these worth? I have a lead on one but don't know what to offer him (there was no asking price in the add)
Cheers
What is a good crack free dash worth?
I would say to him that because he didn't post an asking price,
that I'm of course flexible but,
I really want to spend only $50. If that's not the selling price,
then please counter with his offer & meet in the middle.
It's stupid to me not to start with the asking price, but,
maybe he is just not informed?
I would say, after he responds, that they tend to sell for $200 & see what he says.
Unless you like his counter offer.
I've been to a lot of garage sales & swap meets & this is called the barter system and it's nothing personal, just fun biz.
But, that's just my way.
Good luck,,,,Greg

Depending upon the number and severity of the cracks I had great success with SEM 39847 two part filler and SEM vinyl paint.
I bought a Zender rear spoiler that had multiple cracks in the outer shell. The thin vinyl rubber coating over the foam body. To reduce flexing I mounted the spoiler on the trunk first, then followed the directions on the filler tubes for filling the cracks and sanding smooth. Yes, the stuff is sandable.
Painted it with the SEM paint, five years later no cracks.
The dash may have cracks over the gauge cluster that have angles not easily made invisible with filling. Attempting repair before installing may invite the flexing I tried to avoid, and repairing in place will no doubt have access, taping adventures associated. Still, with dashes NLA and the SEM filler not that expensive, what's to lose by trying it ?
