Toyota is adding a new dashboard component to its GR Heritage Parts Project catalog, providing a solution for owners of the iconic Mk IV Supra whose vehicles have suffered from the common issue of warped and cracked instrument panels over the decades. The new part is designed to be more durable against the elements while maintaining the original's leather-grain aesthetic.

Why it matters

The Mk IV Supra has become a highly sought-after collector's item in recent years, but many examples have been plagued by deteriorating dashboards due to their age and exposure to the elements. Toyota's new reproduction part will allow owners to restore their Supras to pristine condition, preserving the value and drivability of these beloved sports cars.

The details

The new dashboard piece from Toyota contains only the larger dashboard section, not the entire instrument panel. However, it is constructed with modern materials designed to be more resistant to warping, cracking, and damage from heat, cold, and sunlight compared to the original components. Despite the change in materials, Toyota has preserved the original leather grain-like finish to ensure a seamless integration with the rest of the dashboard.

• The new Supra dashboard parts will be available for purchase at GR Garage and Toyota dealership locations in Japan this fall.
• Supra owners outside of Japan may have a harder time tracking down the reproduction part, but its existence is still great news for collectors of this iconic Toyota sports car.
