I would like to replace the three dashboard pieces that are cracking. My preference is the faux wood but I am going to reupholster this month so I am flexible on the color. My local tige dealer was unable to help. Does anyone have any ideas?

Good luck. You are going to have a hard time finding that. It will likely come from a used parts dealer, and they will probably not sell just those pieces.
What I am eventually going to do with my dash once the current cracks become as issue: pull it out and remove the rubberized vinyl on it currently, sand it, cover it with fleece, coat it with resin, let it harden, bondo it, sand it, paint it. Should last another 10-20 years. I would do a thin layer of resin over fleece, and sand it back smooth. Since you are going to upholstery, might as well see if they can repair them.http://www.wakeboatworld.com

you could carbon fiber over top of the existing pieces or have a machine shop make new ones from aluminum which could be painted or anodizedComment

You could also check out some custom car places. People do custom dash and instrument pannels all the time.Comment

Thanks for all the ideas. I will let you know what I end up doing.Comment

If you're really good w/ fiberglass you may be able to make this work!?
