Dash Kits...

I am wondering what there is out there for dash kits? I have one in mind but Jeff is out of the material to make it so looking at otehr options. I know theres brushed alum but I dont think it will look good on beige, and as far as woodgrain I think the black wood look would be coo but dont know where to get it? If anyone has any reccomendations for a dash kit for a beige interior...Thanks,

Mike

Does anybody have pics of the carbon fiber installed? All I've ever seen here is wood and aluminum.

Here's a sample of what I can get you from the Dash Factory. I can offer reduced prices on orders of 5 or more. I'm not a very good photographer but this will give you an idea.

Try chrome like thebigsadler. I think that looks good on tan. It would match better than black chrome with a tan interior anyways.

Also, Joshua Tree's aluminum kits are now being supplied by us. Their original supplier no longer does real aluminum

I was looking at that web site and I noticed that the art where out clock is is two pieces. I have seen this type of kit and it looks horrible. A one nice molded piece would be better looking. Other then that their prices look very good considering its real carbon fiber ( thats what they say)
I ordered a few sample pieces, hopefully I will like the quality becuase I am looking for a new look in my car. I need something that goes with me ten leather seats

Your right i do agree with you on that and i am also waiting on samples to see if it matches some othe rcarbon fiber pieces i all ready have. But they have the best prices i have found. and a wide varity of colors and types.

Almost every kit out there for the '95-99 has the clock in 2 pieces. I have no idea why they did it that way, I think it's because of the bend. We had to custom make our kit one piece because the template was 2 pieces like you mentioned. And nobody we found had it as one piece.

If you are looking for a black dash kit click the link below. It is form autoaccessorystore.com. I have a good relationship with the maker of these kits so if you are interested let me know. These kits are all flat kits not molded.
