Unless you purchased one of our few NOS original upper dash speaker bezel in the last few years they are usually cracked on most of the original Buick Regal . This part having a newer technology based plastic should out last the originals that were used with older technology.
This is the part that sits between the upper dash pad and the front windshield.
This NEW reproduction upper dash trim panel will fit any 1978-1987 Buick
Regal. This is a plastic injection molded the same process that GM used originally.
The quality is excellent. We have seen a production sample and it is dead-on match to the original GM panel. The reproduction units are gray molded. This is extremely close to the original GM gray. This is a much nicer start then the common GM blue. The majority of Buick interiors were Gray like the Grand National gray trim.
Please note your factory unit cracked and warped due to a few reasons. It is in the windshield with sunlight beating down on it. The windows are closed and temperatures reach very hot and cold conditions. The plastic will expand and contract with extreme heat and cold. For extended life we suggest when installing the 9 screws you do not tighten them down. Loose, snug fit will allow for this part to expand and contract the full length not just in sections. Today's new technologies in plastic are a lot better but at the end of the day it is plastic being expanded and contracted. We are working on a screw kit that will be available in mid 2020
The panel comes in gray, as shown in the first photo. It can be exact paint matched to the interior of your car. For other colors, we offer all interior colors in a spray paint. The paint we use with the better plastics will prevent the "eBay warpage" Our paints have a Hi UV protection. There are multiple coats of paint and satin clear to prevent being blinded by the sun.
