Yeah it fits right over the bezel and atop the dash cover.
They are tight fits and the lines match up very well.
My covers also came with tubes of silicone.You wont be able to take it off and see the cracking dash.

To the OP if you want a full replacement be ready to shell out some serious cash(I believe 400+ dollars)
To me its a no brainer.

I have been intending to take some pics and write up so look for that tommorow if I can get my axle joints replaced in time.
Which color did you buy and what color spray paint did you get? I would love to do this but I am afraid i would make things look horrible by trying to paint them.

Edit - And can you post some pictures of the install or finished look?

Mine was somewhere around $280 for the replacement with a shop discount. See if you can get a shop to buy it for you and hook you up.

I dont like the idea of covering the problem, but thats just me.
