Can somebody tell me who makes this molded alum dash kit, offered on EBay: http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI...item=547164785
I am looking for a MOLDED alum kit, complete. I am presuming the maker of this partial kit also makes a full kit.

Punkdork, the AE finish is painted on. It really doesn't look much different than a GXE finish. I can't figure out how Nissan calls it simulated carbon fiber. That new kit on Ebay looks good. I need to see more pictures however.

I was thinking of bidding on this. I exchanged email with the company who makes it. Please take pictures, if you can.

I won the auction on EBay. I'll post back my opinion once I receive the stuff.
My research tells me this is the only alumninum looking molded kit. I could be wrong.

My JWT is not painted. It has a clear plastic coating on top. The problem with the stock trim is that it's painted and mine scratched off. I think if I painted the stock trim, it would scratch off and reveal the stock surface.

Has anyone tried this yet? I'm thinking of trying it. I wonder what paint would look good. I don't have much experience with this kind of thing.

For those of you interested in this kit, I found it is a "woodview" brand kit.
Go here to see it:
http://www.autodash.com/
First selection:
"Include all manufacturers"
Second selection:
"Molded dash kit"
Third selection:
"Nissan"
Enter "Maxima" as the model.
Click "Search".
On the search results page, click "more info".
It lists for $231.00
