Pro's and Con's of ebay aluminum dash kits
 

I am in the search to get an aluminum dash kit for my car. There are a few on ebay with prices ranging from 85-130 bucks. The high end ebay kit has 30 pieces with it while the others have only 20, anyone have pics with a setup of 20, or setup of 30?

Also I want it to match my deck (link below) so will the brushed aluminum be the best, or just plain aluminum? Any has anyone experienced peeling of the kits. I could imagine a high emphasis on cleaning the dash before applying the kit. But regardless I want to hear horror storys if any. Thanks

Bump...I'd like to know too...

bump, pics welcome

I have brushed alumminum from some guy in NY on ebay and I love it....just clean your dash and install....its a REAL simple process and looks great

do you have the 20 piece kit, or 30

And can you please post pics?:)

I don't have access to a digital camera right now

-_-


But I do have the 30 piece set.... :grinno:

worst case scenario: they will turn yellowish


get your hands on a joshua tree aluminum dash.

i painted my dash aluminum and it matches my deck perfectly....it takes alot of time to do it but its well worth it after u r done....

i have a chrome ebay kit and i love it. i have teh 30 peice and ti was simply to install and makes a complete difference in teh way the interior looks.

i just do not like the door switch covers cause they look bad due to the layer of stuff on top of the stock switch cover.

is it like a sticker, or is it a thin peice of AL

its like a sticker......

a bubbled stciker ................. but it looks real good

My Ebay Kit, I think I might've bought mine from the same NY guy that Nick mentioned...I love the kit and very easy to install...sorry the resolution sux in the camera I used but hope it helps:

i have ebay aluminum dash kit for 2 years w/ custommaxima's real aluminum bezel. IMO it was mistake to get ebay's aluminum dash kit. if i ever have to do it all over again i would definetly go with all joshua tree's, or stick with ebay's aluminum bezel.

either way it looks alrite...most people stare at my microvision screen now... i can live with it the way it is.

Got an Ebay kit. Vendor was NYcity dashes or something, probably the same one these other guys mentioned. Looks great, no discoloration, me likey.
