Default Superior Dash Interior Trim kit... Anyone have it?

What EXACTLY does this kit consist of? Has anyone bought this in the brushed aluminum? Any pics? I'd really like to upgrade the look of my interior.

^ He does.

I've been really wanting to do this along with some GS stripes, think it's just me always wanting to mod/change the appearance of my car though. Of all the people on Tech Chaman's the only member I've seen with this kit believe it or not, sucks b/c I'd really like to see more pics of this installed.

Another option is hydro dipping the interior pieces with all different patterns & colors.

I think it could look nice, but there is way to many pieces in the kit it would be way over done.. If you used like half of the overlays provided it would add a nice touch

Well, back in 2007 (you were not even a member here) when I put the dash kit a LOT of people liked it. I still get asked on it from time to time. Of course that was a time when the quality of TECH mods was the best. Not little men in powertrips. The ones who had something to say where respectful and constructive.

Oh and they are not decals, its a thin brushed aluminum sheet covered in automotive grade clear urethane. If your into two feet SS logos that can be seen from an airplane good for you, but getting personal over such an irrelevant issue says a lot about the type of person you are.

BTW, looking forward to see your same old lame, out of focus pic in the COTM contest. Its been what, a year, with the same sorry *** pic? LOL!!

Chaman: i have to admit i love the outside of your car but it something about the trim that i think looks out of place. i could just be the color or just the fact that it just cuts off at a certain point. if you like it, thats all that matters.

I had a real carbon fiber overlay kit in my 99 T/A, some loved it some hated it. I liked it at the time cause it spiced up the interior to match the exterior a bit more.

Anybody take panels to an interior shop to get wrapped? What is about the charge on something like that?

that use to be a kit sold by specialized stainless (sponsor) but i think they stopped producing it, i guess they didnt sell many of them. i wanted to do my interior like that but A.) the florida heat would kill the glue and it would eventually not hold. and B.) im not that skilled/patient to do it. i shop could do it but i would probably cost a load of cash. some people took hours just to wrap one panel
