Has anyone with a 5th Gen Max purchased the Aluminum Dash kits?? If so how do you like it and is it real aluminum or a plastic look-a-like? And finally where can I get the kit? tHANKs

 

Here are some links about this subject and discussed in detail ...

boils down to this

do not buy the one from custommaxima.com, they are cheap and crappy looking.
if you want one get it from discountdash.com, those are much nicer.

 

Did you buy one from Greg? If not, you shouldn't be posting here. I supply Greg with all of their kits. Do you know how many dash kit manufacturers there are that use real aluminum? Exactly two. The people who supply Joshua Tree, and us. Did you know that Joshua Tree tried to get us to supply them because the company they use has terrible quality control? Do you actually even know how much the dash kits that Greg sells normally cost? Retail is $300. He just gets to sell it for what he does because he buys so much. Our 4th gen kits fit perfectly. The 5th gen kits also do, but due to the 3D nature of the dash and the flat kit, it does look a little strange, but definitely not cheap. The kit fits perfectly, there are no gaps, it just doesn't follow the contours of the raised dash. We are working on that though. What it boils down to is, if you want a molded kit, you have to get synthetic. If you want a real aluminum kit, there is no molded version. It's not possible with the traditional methods of making molded kits. We are working on a substitute so that we can produce real aluminum molded kits, but it is not going to be cheap. Think 2x as much as the fake metal kits.
