Default Any tips or tricks on dash repair?

I removed my NAV to replace the touch screen and nicked a couple spots. Anyone have ideas on how I can touch this up and make it a little better?

Yeah but I dont think mine will qualify. Im not experiencing a melted sticky dash like others. I put those nicks in there by removing my NAV. I will admit the dash is a cheap piece of crap. I was so careful and still screwed it up.

What year is your Lexus? If it's older than 2008 (or early 2008), it should qualify. You can check the VIN. I think if you leave your car out in the sun with dash expose, it will melt.

I believe the same. You just gotta melt it.
