Cracked Dash and Peeling trim fixes???

hey everyone, like seen in the pictures, what would be some ways to fix this?

I’m aware that a cracked dash can be replaced with a non cracked one, or wrapped over in alcantara but idk how i currrntly feel about wrapping over it. I’d like to repair or fix or replace.

With the trim that’s peeling, what are ways to fix this? i don’t wanna wrap over them as i like the factory trim.

Basically, this car is my first manual car. I’ve had around 100 miles driven and im sure it hasn’t been kind to the clutch or the trans as i’m a new manual driver. I recently started hearing this coming from the car when not pressing the clutch. Did I cook the trans within a month of being a noob at manual? Or is this something that you guys know can be fixed. Might just be a rattle but I’m a bit worried!

Also, previous owner had receipts for a motor swap around 3ish years ago I wanna say. He told me he swapped clutch out last year or year before that and installed a CSC V1 kit from Z1 or saw that it had one, not sure which was which, but he did mention trans fluid and clutch changed last year.

If there’s anything I can do, let me know!

hey guys, these need some love but for 150, with MAFs, i’ll make my money back even if they’re bad! These need some TLC for sure, i cleaned them up and used K&N filter cleaner on the filters, hence the color. Any way I could source one of those pipes from Stillen directly? One of them has some damage on it from being in an accident I believe. I’m sure it would be fine if I ran them how they are but i’d rather fix it. If not, what do you guys suggest to fix it!

Also, any suggestions on how to clean them up properly and make them look brand new again will be appreciated :)

Also, one of the MAF bolts broke off unfortunately, any thoughts on how i would remove that?

Oh and, Stillen recommends these to be oiled but on my old car I had AFE Power intakes and ran them dry, what do you guys recommend? I have the K&N oil for the air filter at home already.

My gas gauge wasn’t reading right and I had a P0462 code. It Would read right occasionally. It seems like it was just as simple as resoldering the resistors, the 181 and 161 that’s circled seem to be the biggest culprit. I heated up one side for the circled one and the resistor fell off which made me realize one side wasn’t on properly so i resoldered it to the board. Also applied more solder to each other resistor.

Taking out the AC Amp was pretty easy. I have 1WX1A part number and was gonna order the newer one that fixed it but decided to tackle this. My soldering experience is soldering 2-3 new joysticks for ps4 controllers over the summer with a 15 dollar soldering iron. Saved myself a bunch of money i hope.

Gas gauge seems to be reading right now and it’s been 3 days and the check engine light hasn’t come back. Hopefully this is permanent enough. If it does come back I’ll look at the fuel sending unit but it all seems good right now :)
