Opinions on which dash replacement is best

[JeffAARy]

Anyone have an opinion (dumb question, I know) on which replacement dash is best?  Just Dashes' full resto, Ultimate Rides' dash cap, or one of the cheap-o dash caps?

It depends on your taste and budget. You can get a nice dashcap for under $100. It looks nice, but feels like hard plastic. If you want to have your dashpad redone, or to buy a new one, then you are into the $600-$700 range. I bought a new dashpad from Ultimate Rides. No complaints.

My Just Dashes fit perfectly. I have no idea as to how it compares to the OE since mine was so bad, but the new one looks perfect, and fits perfect. I would do Just Dashes again if I had to buy another.......

What is ultimate rides website? Do they keep them in stock? Also anyone got any thoughts on the reproduction pads from Year One?

With Just Dashes they have you send the dash to them and they vacuum form it on the frame.  With Ultimate Rides you just buy a pad and install it on the frame yourself. 

Mike:  Is sending the dash to Just Dashes unnecessary, or is it a better product then the Ultimate Rides pad?

John:  I don't think Ultimate Rides has a website.  They sell through Ebay.  The username is viper something.  Just search for cuda dashes or shaker hoods - they repro those also.  They were one of the companies that supposedly supplied Nash Bridges Cudas.

 Ultimate Rides is known as"nitrouspowered" on E-Bay. I did have to send them a POS core before they sent me my new dashpad.

Has anyone used Laysons Restorations to have their dash redone?

When I bought my dashpad from Ultimate Rides 2 years ago, I didn't have to send in a core, but  I was hit with a core charge of like $ 50.00.

I just put a new dash in my '70 Challenger from Ultimate rides and I'm very happy with it. I had to do some triming aroung the A/C vents but no big deal.  if you need one for a '70 they put the proper script logo in them now and it looks real nice.
