Default Post some photos of your dash kit

Thinking of a dash kit for my 80. Read through all the old posts and it seems to be a love it or hate it thing. Those of you that have dash kits installed please post some pictures to help with the decision. I am leaning towards a brushed aluminum or chrome kit.

No quicker way to lead your C3 down the trailer park look than some awful dash sticker kit. Just awful.

These threads always seem divided by chrome bumper vs plastic bumper.

How so? What happens if you have one of each? I do and I am not going to stick a trim kit in my 80.

I never liked the wood kits....they sell them to look elite but to me they look tacky like something in a wanna be 4re kit car or old boat,

The CF isnt too bad....

I havent seen the aluminum ones...

So whats wrong with the stock dash?

And I stated my opinions and we all have one....but dash kits are still off the shelf....so to really be different that would be a custom one off dash....
