Default Dashmat

Anyone here have or consider a dashmat for their car? I am trying to get an idea on what it looks like as CoverCraft uses a generic picture. I have some scuffs near the right top speaker and being OCD it kind of bugs me.

I personally think that a dashmat would look worse Than the scuffs on your dash.

Post some pics, maybe we can come up with something to cover it. I would throw my draggy on top of it.

It looks fine to me. Certainly not worth ruining the clean look of your dash with a mat.

Maybe put one of those silicone anti slip dash pads for phones up there. That would look better than anything else I can imagine without ruining the flow of your interior.

i think my grandma would consider a dash mat, but than that, don't believe there'd be more than 1% of the population

Personally I think a dash mat would look worse. Those marks don't look that bad to me, have you tried wiping them over with a trim cleaner/restorer? I've used 303 aerospace protectant with good results on scuff marks before, but there are plenty of other products.
