Full Version: Dash frame question
The dashboard frame on my car is signal orange but the car's factory color is tangerine. I assume this means the dash has been replaced but I see no reason why a PO would have done this. Could porsche have installed this mismatched dash frame color?
Likely they ARE matched. The colors of the dash vary. I believe its the chassis number that matters...
Dash frames were painted a bunch at a time with whatever paint happened to be in the gun, before it was installed in the car. Very common for it to be a different color that the body.
Interesting... thanks guys.
no way. The dashes are always different colors, what ever they had at the time. sprayed over black.

Yep, that's what it looks like - an "adequate" signal orange layer sprayed over black.
