Default Molded Dash Kits

anyone know where to get the actual replacement peices in brushed aluminum and carbon fiber? Fbodymotorsports.com used to have one a long time ago that gave you the bezel door pieces and center console but cant seem to find it anymore.

Im NOT talking about the stick on peices but the actual parts themselves...

Anyone know?

I hate the stick on **** too, so gay

You have to send out your stock pieces, to have covered. Steve "The Bling King" had it done to his 2000 SS way back in the day. He did all CF, and it came out looking pimp.

Huh, you sure? You have to send your stuff out, then they coat it. They have it listed under custom coatings.

Heres brushed aluminum on a BMW inner fairing

Shitty picture, but they do have it.

Never seen it in person. But you can't coat plastic in aluminum.

Brushed finish, with some kind of protective laminate I believe so the finish doesn't get chipped/cracked/faded, etc.

I remember that Fbodymotorsports kit. It was like 600 dollars, and was the same treatment as above.

Just call them tomorrow and ask. Toll free number, I just tried calling but they are closed.

I'm sure it's very similar to what BMW uses on their cars.

EDIT: Just noticed the service is offered by these guys : B&I Trim Manufacturers.

This brushed finish is dipped. Pretty bad ***, just like the brushed BMW trim.
