I bought a custom made dashmat through Autobarn for my Zetec, it cost around $65 ? I had it made up with sewn silver edging which matches in nicely with the brushed aluminium vents and dash trim. They're not everyone's cuppa tea but I think they look OK and they reduce the reflective glare on the windscreen from the dash as well. I'm an old fart anyway so I can get away with it

Pics of custom dashmat (excuse the phone quality) should give you a rough idea, like I said earlier it's not to everyone's liking but I'm happy with it. It should flatten out a lot more come summer as well once it gets a bit of heat on it
