[QUOTE="Transplant, post: 492664, member: 23849"] Thanks guys, it’s turning out pretty well so far. Lower section of dash is a Krylon textured plastic paint, the gauge sections are all rustoleum paints, primer, semi-Matt black and gloss clear topcoat. I don’t expect it all to last a lifetime where it’s just spray bombed but I’ve had decent luck with these paints for outdoor projects so hopefully it’ll hold up for a while. For the repair area I used Gorilla Glue gel instant adhesive to bond the cracked pieces and to bond a small piece of thin acrylic under the missing piece. Then I filled thst missing piece in with some 5 minute epoxy to blend it into the rest of the plastic. It’s solid but also has a bit of flexibility too so hopefully I can avoid cracking it on re-install. [/QUOTE]
