My dash used to have a glossy finish. The issue I had with it was the reflection it put on the winshield when the sun hit it just right. It was a PITA at times.

I've had my iPad in the dash for the past few months, and while I don't drive much, I've yet to have that blind me, and that's a much better reflector than the dash likely will be.

I have seen so many dashes cracked after a year of weather. do your homework on the painting

Homework please! :D iv been thinking about it myself too. Is it the whole piece cracking or just the paint?

Hope you have a big pocket book to do the suede. Did suede headliner in a excursion and civic and its expensive. Suede isn't cheap

Do you know the price per yard? Guesstimate?

You can get a fake suede but of good quality for about 60 a yd but the read suede is 400-500 a yd.
