I'd really like to have the option offered with the sahara, only with red stitching. Has anyone seen anything like that? I'm really tired of looking at the red dash and may just have it painted if I can't do the leather or maybe some other cover with texture to it.
This is absolutely something that the aftermarket will take care of. JPP will be offering paintable panels as well as stock in very short order. There are too many people concerned/complaining about the Rubi dash for this to go unaddressed. Your idea of the black pleather (it's not real leather in the Sahara) with the red stitching is an excellent one, as it would match the seats and locker panel without being in your face so much. I hope someone is listening...

If one paints the panels to match your outside color, I would think that the 3M plastic overlay would solve and issues with scratches.

Did you get the airbag out? Something is holding it up on the bottom from underneath or something...

Nice! Did you just pull on the bottom of the airbag piece, after you took the screws out of the little trim panel under the handle?

There’s two more screws holding the airbag. They are located on the bottom by the glove box.

Thought I would share my mod to the dash. I did not want the red dash, so the dealer worked with me on getting it painted. Picked the Jeep up Friday. Hard to tell in the picture but it’s painted the same as the outside, graphite. Thrilled with how it came out.

If you don't mind me asking, how much did it cost to have it painted?

If you don't mind me asking, how much did it cost to have it wrapped? Looks great.
