Once you've scuffed/cut the plastic and there is a noticeable gouge, it will never be perfectly flawless again. Have you tried buffing it out? You could try a small dremal tool with a soft buffer wheel connected.If you dont have a buffing tool, you could use a tiny bit of polish and buff with a soft shirt. Beater shirts (undershirts) work great for stuff like this.

Another thing you could do, this sounds silly but you could paint the area with matching dash paint and use a textured roller to smooth the paint surface. That would give you that dash look (rough plasticy look). nIf you do attempt to paint touch up, make sure its flat/matte and not glossy. EDIT: I'm not 100% sure even which paint would be a closest match, hopefully another Camaro5 member can chime in.

EDIT2: If you can, get a photo of the scratch so we can see what were dealing with.
