Anybody use a dash cap to fix their pad??

I'd like to fix my dash pad and I've seen these everywhere from ebay to Year One. Do they work well? Who sells a decent one at a decent price ( Y O was ok until they added $49.70 for shipping). I'm gonna be 16 on October 17th & with my part time income I need to watch every penny.
Oh ya, my interior is blue so I guess I'd have to paint a black one if I couldn't find blue.
Anybody got a pic of one in their car?
Thanks!
