I'm in the process of restoring my dash pad and I thought I would use a dash cover to put over it once it's finished. I ordered it from a place called Coverking 17 days ago. Their website said the general time to build and ship is 1 week. They provide a link in their confirmation email to track the order. Every time I check it says it's being processed. I emailed them and have gotten no response. I just emailed them again tonight. Has anyone here dealt with them? If so was it a good experience? They sell thru Autozone but I placed my order directly with them.

Finally received the cover! Took it out to check the fit, and it actually looks pretty good. This Saturday I'll install it on the dash and take some pictures.

Here are a few pics. It's not secured to the dash yet.

I attached the cover to the dash pad this afternoon after work, It looks ok but I would not recommend them. It doesn't fit the dash as well as I thought it would, especially for a "custom" cover. I tried using extra velcro to get it to sit right but it was off a little bit, especially right over the gauge cluster, and just to the right of the gauge cluster where the big dip in the dash is.

I read your posts and took them to heart. I went to the store and bought more velcro. Cutting it in small pieces I repositioned the cover to make it look closer to what I had envisioned. I'll take a picture tomorrow and post it.

Here is the final product after adding velcro and doing some adjusting.

Why cover new dash with pad and not old one? Do you tale it off?

The new vinyl is still there but after sitting in the sun this last week some of the glue softened up. I didn't feel like fixing it right now so I put the cover on it.
