There's a couple of ways to accomplish what you want for a new looking dash.

Go to a local parts recycler & find yourself a dash from another Supra. Bring it back and redesign yourself a new dash and fiberglass the dash for your finish
Take your existing one and do the same as above ( I suggest goingt o get a different one and then doing the fiberglass incase something goes wrong )
Just refinish the one you have ( no redesigning of the dash ) and finish it in fiberglass

That's what I would do. The junk yard prices should not be too expensive and it gives you the added comfort that if you do something worng with the dash, it's not going to leave you stranded without a car to drive.
