Yes, the entire dashboard can be replaced. At least a couple people have swapped the dash or dyed it over the past year. I took one out, but have not done the install. Lots of labor, so I expect it would be expensive at a shop. DIY just takes patience and careful prying of the edge trim.

What blue accents are you talking about? I have a black interior and the only accents are silver.

Here's what I'm looking for...
986 Boxster S. Black top, Black interior.

I can find 986 Base Boxsters with all-black interior. Just not S models.
They always seem to have blue padding on the dash. I've been looking for some time now, and I keep running into it. I'm not finding all-black interior.

Some things just pop right off with a couple screws and a little prying. Those are my favorite car parts.
