inside my car, i have those neon wires and they look cool and all, but they were a pain in the ass to install, prob cause it was cold. but through the process some of the vinal on the dash got ruined (long story) its my first car, so it doesnt really bother me much and i fixed most of the spots that got damaged, but does anyone know where to get paint or whatever to touch it up? theres no tears or scratches, just a couple of spots that are a lighter shade of grey.

Well... You could remove the dash and then paint it like some members have done. Where exactly is the damage?

Some of the places that mix paint for body shops have interior paint. I touched up my '78 El Dorado dash in place.

It had a dark spot that kept getting bigger every time I scrubbed it...

Just use it as a excuse to design a brand new interior, try painting the dash and then paint the trims to match, get some matching seats (if they're cloth, you can get some fabric and make some nice overlays) find some lighting, set up a color theme..it'll make a custom look that makes the car, well, your own :)
