Don't sand it! That vinyl will be damaged and look like crap afterwards. There's a bloke over here from our club who did this, I'm not to fond of the result to be true, looks kind of "I'm trying to get a dark dash, but was to cheap-arse to just buy me one from the scrappy" to me. Just pick one up at a scrapper, there plenty of them over here in Holland, so should be in the UK too I guess

Yeah they do. There are three colours - black, dark grey and light grey. Light grey is horrible but the dark grey and black is nice.

Like stated and pictured above: yes, there are mk4 with a black dashboard. Just keep your eyes open, try Ebay, call some crappers in your region and you should find a decent one for a decent price.
