    Wow I’m stumped that’s a new one. Only thing I can think of is the leather shrink and the lines are from the airbag

    Was thinking same thing. Was wondering if anyone else has seen this. Thanks for reply.

    The lines are definitely the airbag seams, but not sure why they are showing so clearly. Usually, you would have to look hard to see them.
    Maybe you can try treating the dash with a leather conditioner? I'm not sure if it would help, but I think that's something I would try if I were in your shoes.

    My 458 spider had those distinct lines. At least your dash isn’t bubbling up… yet. The bubbling/shrinkage bothered me a lot more.

    Perhaps this is a precursor. Unfortunately/fortunately this is a car I'm looking to purchase and not one I own yet. Thanks for the feedback guys. The search for the right car continues.

    My spider had the same but not as deep. But yeah its better than bubbling, this didnt really bother me.
