Default Dash Pad Pros

Anybody ever buy from them?
If so, how would you rate their product / service?
They seem to specialize in Mopars, but have also branched out to other makes/models.

Looking at getting a 69 GTO dash from them.
They claim 2-3 week to make, instead of 6 months plus wait that most seem to endure when getting from Just Dashes.

I have not bought a dash from them but I did visit their facility in El Paso. You are correct that they mainly focus on Mopar products. Their facility was not what I expected, messy and disorganized. Several folks were working on dashes though. I'm not sure how they track your core through the process and my thought is you may end up with someone else core, if that matters.

The Pontiac dashes I looked at were good. They strip all the foam and vinyl off of the core then use the same process the factory used to reconstruct it. The shape of their dashes is close but the edges seemed more rounded and not as sharp. The vinyl grain is also slightly off but it would be hard to tell unless you had an original sitting next to it.

Since no one else has responded, I'll throw my 2 cents in. If its the same outfit out of Texas that is making them under a new name, buyer beware. I've seen the quality of them first hand and they do have issues. This is all based on 4-5 years ago so maybe they got things figured out by now. The turn around time was a lot better than Just Dashes, but it wasn't no 2-3 weeks. You know you'll get a a quality dash from Just Dashes, but you pay for it in time and money.
