you can have the dash covers made that way at a good uposltry shop.


as far as the warping i have not see that on mine. mine looks the same it did the day i got it home.

but i think you have something way off in tehre unless they put the wrong year dash in and it is to tight so it is heating up and expanding to cause the warping but etheir way somethig is not right like i said they might have welded somethign funny or somethign else.

also remeber he monte carlos have that metal bracing behind the dash adn from wha ti have seen of it it looked like it was cast aluminum if that is the case it might be some casting that was left on it and it didnt get taken off or somthign.

I dotn know any dash i have seen like that has had a serious accident in teh frnt and cause things to get pushed back this is what i would think is causeing this but i dont think that your car has been it if it has and they didnt tell you about it you have a hell of a law suite on that one

The dash is fairly simple to remove, you'll have to remove the pillar molding, there are screws on each side holding everything together but the pad and rear plate just pop off and are held on by clips.

Now that I think about it, what good would it be to get a leather cover, I'd be in the same boat, getting the glare. Man, I must have been tired last night

twead or suede? I think you meant suede, right?

I bet that would be expensive. I'm gonna stop by the place tomorrow after I get my dual exhaust installed and I'll see what's up.
