That can be fixed. I fixed this one.
Back of the console had a crack lengthwise center top.
One front corner was cracked and reinforced the other corner, other tabs were repaired.
I bought some acetone, got some ABS plastic, made little pieces put them in a glass jar with some acetone.
Left them until they made a thick glue.
I shaped a piece of ABS to shape of the console top, using a heat gun to soften the ABS so I could form it. Put the glue on the console top as shown and clamped it.
It will take awhile to make the glue.
You might be able to get white ABS, don’t know.
Main thing shape the reinforcement piece correctly.

I've looked online for SEM gold color plastic paint to match the gold color Mopar used in '73 with no luck. Any suggestions?

Has anybody compared SEM vinyl Palomino #15323 with the medium gold color specified for 1973 Dodge Medium gold? I found a Martin-Senour color code for it, 32Y-16162, but can't find that number matches any paint they offer today. The Hamtramck Registry shows the color as Medium Gold for interior panels but can't seem to find a match for 1973 Dodge interior "Meduim Gold" in any vinyl spray product. My fender tag calls out E6Y4 as the interior code. I found a good top console piece to replace my cracked one but its black and want to see if I can paint it and the bottom piece to come close to the original color. Ant color suggestions or experiment results with colors would be appreciated.
