i'm looking at 'em and i'm still not sure because there's nothing else "shiny" on the dash... BUT... if you're diggin' 'em --

it's cool to see people making these cars their own!

...and also... the satin trim rings around the gauges. like i said, i think we should ALL make these cars our own and enjoy 'em... they're the realization of a life-long dream for some people! having to decide whether we like "shiney" *****... or matte black ***** on the navigation unit of our $55k "toy" is a HELLUVA "problem" to be saddled with.

times like this make me think... "violet, life is good babe!"

Have Climate ***** no Nav **** yet.

Exoticwooddashes is offering a brushed Alum Flat panel kit. 19 pieces in all. I'm leaning toward that.

Anyone have exp with that type of install?

Have you seen a stick on kit before? Too my eye they look like what they are. Thick stickers. Expensive looking stickers, but stickers never-the -less. The one I looked at was a real wood kit for a truck. Perhaps others that might be thinner would blend better. The one I looked at wasnt my cup of tea.

I think their product is pretty reputable....I'm looking at the same brushed aluminum kit as well but that "synthetic" platinum silver may be a closer match for the center console and pods.
