R32 Dashboard

[r32line]

Hey guys,

Just wanted to ask what product(s) you use to protect your r32 dashboard. My current dashboard has bubbled as i have seen in many r32's. I managed to buy a 2nd hand dash off some1 on SAU who was wrecking a gts4 which is not bubbled.

As such I dont want this dash to go down the same track so im wondering what is best to use to protet it, im going to buy the biggest UV windscreen protector i can find to keep the sun off it obviously as i know what that can do to it, but i have heard armorall can dry out the plastic and cause the plastic to crack. Apparently it makes it look shiny and new but when it dries up it takes all the moisture with it...

Most interested for your feedback!!

Best bet is to just keep the sun off of it and keep it some place cool.

Yeah deff, but when i clean the car inside and out, i like it all to look immaculate, which is why i used to use armorall on the current dash. So beside covering it from the sun, I wanted to know what products would protect the plastic and make it look its best...

Probably not the response you were lookin for but when i had my GTR i bought a dash mat for the dash.

Ok it doesnt look as good with it on, but it sure as hell looks after it.

I got mine from Autoworx in Perth, not sure who else sells them but i only payed about $40 - $60 from memory.

Is a great investment. Had mine on for well over a year and the dash didnt bubble or crack at all.

Haha, I was wondering if there would be a way to get a dash mat for a JDM car like the 32. I am not a fan of dash mats cause to me they are the same as a car bra, why protect it all the time if its always covered and u rarely see it in its full glory.

However i was thinking of having a mat on when i park the car etc then just leave it in the boot or whatever when im in the car, but might be better to just use the UV window cover so the rest of the car is protected from the sun too...
