2014 Cayman Dash Glare/Reflections

[jaustinmd]

I just bought a 2014 Cayman - Rhodium Silver Metallic with Luxor Beige interior. Overall, I like the interior (but will likely get some black floormats - the beige mats get dirty instantly!) but the glare or reflection on the windshield from the light-colored dash is very annoying.

I suspect most will quickly habituate to it and it won't be so noticeable, but has anyone tried a dash cover in a darker material to minimize the problem? If so, what color/material/vendor did you choose and how did it work out? My biggest fear is that it will simply look "tacky" and I don't want to go there!

I remember back in 1990 buying a VW Jetta VR6 pocket rocket which had a two toned dash and I wondered why the top of the dash was black matte and the rest a light tan. Then someone explained the reflection issue.
