in my car just ahead of the steering wheel where the dash flatens out the material is starting to come up i was just wondering if there is anything i can do to prevent or get this fixed, at a reasonable price. Maybe even do it your self type of thing. Any input is appreciated, wasnt real clear so if there are anyquestions please ask. Thanks!
 
If the dash has been exposed to excessive sunlight regularly it will 'dry' out. this often causes cracks or 'lifting'. If the cause is due to drying out then you'll have to see if you can re-hydrate the area first. Try using an armor-all type product. Apply the armor-all or a similar product and rub it in, do this daily until you can feel the material getting suple. When it's suple enough to bend clean the under side and use a good trim adhesive.
 
thanks for the reply! it is not bad right now i would be afraid to take it off and do the whoelk thing right now.... but i will definately start using more amoral and care products and if it gets really bad i will do as you said thanks again
