I was wondering if anyone knew of a good molded chrome/aluminum/silver carbon dash kit for the 02 maxima (w/o navi) .. i've seen the one on legend5 and custom maxima and discountdash and i think that they look too flat.. i want a dash kit that looks 3-D but still matches the metal mat they have on custommaxima

pix/website would be nice

any suggestions?

Woodview is the only dash kit company that makes a 3D dash kit for our Maxima. They have stainless which is simular to the Alum. kit you are looking for, but as you said they are too flat(assuming you mean not as shiny). If you want a kit to match the mats on custommaxima you would have to get a Flat dash kit. Joshua Tree makes a real Brushed Aluminum dash kit for the Max which is shiney like metal. I had the Joshua tree dash kit on my 2001 Altima. I have the 3D mold English Burl on my 02 Max though. You can request a sample of the Stainless (3D molded) kit to see if the finish is good enought. Hope this helps.

You have websites for either of those companies? or numbers would be good

 

Joshua tree

woodview

Discount dash is the cheapest site for the woodview kit which I know you have already been to they offer free samples as well.

You can mix the joshua tree kit (flat kit only carbon/alum) with the molded kit to get a more authentic look to the entire car.

 

So which kits have the thick aluminum (real or synthetic)?

 

Not sure of what you mean by "thick."woodview is the only one that makes the molded kit (which fits over the entire piece it is covering like factory, and Joshua tree sales flat dash kit you can get either real or synthetic aluminum. If you are looking for the custommaxima look with aluminum and the floormats get Joshua Tree's real brushed aluminum, but if you want a less flashy look to the Aluminum (not as shiny) get the Woodview or flat joshua tree kit.

 

AH!!! choices choices.. so which one covers more dash/door area?

 

the 3D molded dash kit will cover more area and give you a stock look especially for your door pieces. I personally think the flat kits look tacky on our cars because the flat kit doesn't cover the entire piece it just sits on top of the piece. here are some examples
