Check with Acculaser, they make a lot of dash kits. I'm not sure if they make sure if they make real aluminum ones, but they make a kit that is actually a feau aluminum and looks uncanny. I'm not sure of the website, but I'm sure if you do a web search, there will be something from Acculaser.

Or, you can get some spray paint and do it your self for about $5. My bezel did not have a perfect fit.

How is your paint holing up? I am considering this mod and was wondering what extent i had to go to.. like actual auto paint with a clearcoat of some sort or just regular spray paint. Please give me some details
thanks

Bizarre. I know there was a vendor out there that sells Aluminum Dash Bezels for the Maxima--I was looking at getting it last month. They were priced at $30. Nice thick solid aluminum panel. I didn't buy it then--got busy and forgot. Now I can't find this site anywhere. Searched all of the dash kit sites and nothing. Maybe they went out of business?

Seems like so many dash kit sites have come on the scene in the last 4 months or so. And prices are coming down--competition must be stiff.

It's Alkaplus selling for $30 on Ebay, and they are not real aluminum. It's really fake. If you want one, I have one laying around, $25.00 shipped. Brand new in box, I bought it to use as a template. I know of several people who didn't like the finish on the Alkaplus ones, their website is www.trimdash.com I think. I'm about the only person selling real aluminum bezels. Their maid out of .030" thick brushed aluminum backed w/ 3M tape, produced by Perfect Image Creations. Price is $50.00+shipping. If interested, email me at sales@ap-signworks.com
