Dash kit

I'm looking for a real aluminum dash kit, not a synthetic one. Where can I buy one for a cheap price? Woodtrim.com (Joshua Tree) is too expensive, they want $250 for it.
Any recomendation is helpful
If you could post a picture of your aluminum dash kit, and where did you get it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanx

How is the quailty of the kit? Do you like it or would you rather get something else? Is it cut almost 100% accurate?

My shop makes them, we are the ones that made Conrad283's kit. We used to supply Custom Maxima with the kits, their current kits are not real metal despite the claims. We have a special price of $165 shipped for 4th gen and $175 shipped for 5th gen Maximas.

Conrad283, how come you don't have a piece around your cluster?
Do you regret getting the kit? Is it covering all plastic pieces without leaving corners like ebay kits which make it look cheap?

dash kits are so expensive for what u get....i bought an aluminum dash kit and it looked not even half as good as i wanted u could tell it was just stuck on top of the old dash...it looked so tacky so what i did...took it off. i went down to the local paintworld and bought a can of the paint to match my car(the code is usually on the firewall under the hood) so i bought the paint for 17.95 and a can of clear coat for 2 bucks and took out my dash and painted it to match the outside of the car...now if you clean it good before u do this it can look so nice. ive gotten so many comments on it how well done it looks ive even had people ask me where i got it done. but no i did it myself in about one day just painting and clearing it and it looks like the outside of the car. im very happy with it. you should try

SC was sold a while back when I decided to go turbo. And all the pipes were custom made.
