hmm, 5 pages for a dash kit, that pretty amazing, ohh wait, probably because it is one of the first dash/console kits I and many others have seen that actually makes the car look a bit nicer on the inside. good deal, and silver on the outside to match.

Where did you get your pedals from? The rubber on my brake pedal came off on me the other day and I don't really want to look at the blank black nothingness that it is w/o it.

I have seen two other things done with the aluminum theme that you may like. First of all, there are aluminum diamond plate floormats w/ a cleargel over it to keep it from scratching. It would look out of place in most cars, but I think it would fit well in yours. You can get them custom cut for our cars on an Ebay store called Best Auto Parts. Secondly, when doing research for my custom carbon fiber door panels I came across a pic of a TA door panel w/ real brushed aluminum inserts. I'll try and find the pic and post it up.
