Anyone know of a way to change how an underlay is displayed? Anyway to make the lines dashed or another line style other than the greyed out look?

Nope, not with the Underlay parameter. Not intended for presentation, just coordination.
You can if you overlay views on sheets however. Setup a duplicate view for the level you want underlayed...alter the view settings, overlay on sheet.

Work-Around Alert!
What I have done on occasion:
I export the plan to AutoCad where I place all the line work I want for overlay/underlay on a single layer, (line assigned by layer). Import it into my Revit plan and then under Object Styles, assign the line color/type to the appropriate layer in the AutoCad file. In the view I use the drawing order tool to assign as overlay or underlay.
It actually doesn't take too long to do and you have more control over how it displays.
cheers
