I have to second that.  My current V8 has a thin vertical split in the
center of the dash. It had it c.2001 when I bought it.  it has not changed
one whit since then with moderate care of the car.

I periodically refinish wood as a minor hobby. Usually gun grips of both
natural and synthetic finish; I would not touch a veneer as thin as what I
saw in the dash panel on this car.  I would try perhaps to polish out the
clouding with an extremely mild polish, like Flitz or diluted Mother's, or
Simichrome.  Unless I had a perfect piece to replace it, I'd limit it to
that.
