    I'm pretty sure that the colour is a dye, used in the manufacturing process. I would suggest talking to an auto trimmer if you're keen on changing it.

    What faynt said - for it to look good you'll prob need to speak to an autotrimmer.

    I test drove one that had the red dash,it was pretty sunny and i was getting some glare from the dash which was annoying (may have been the cheap and nasty hi-gloss stuff they put on it to clean though..)
