Default 350Z Dash Kits....Whats your Opinion?

I was just wondering if any of you had pictures of dash kitson your cars, or what your thoughts on them. I just bough a 350Z and the first mod i want to do is buy a dash kit. My sister has a G35 and i really like the silver dash finish on them. I have been looking at sites but dont know what a good price is, some of them vary from $150-$300, where would you recommend buying a kit from?

Thanks, Shawn

please stay away from the stick-on kits. spend a little more money and get a professional kit. the look and feel is way beyond any set of stickers. try this site for quality dash kits. http://www.elegantwooddesign.com/index2.html

my first was a cheapy off ebay for $150. lost its luster and scratched very quickly. now, i have the edashkit one for $250. it has finish on it that gives it depth and resists fading and scratches, unlike my first one. when i'm tired of this one, i'll prolly go with the expensive one listed above. imo, the stock setup is just too black, too plain.

I don't like dash kits. Stick with stock.

My friend had his dash custom painted and it looks great. Check it out.

The painted one looks sweet!!!, i think i could paint myself for cheaper though...
Anyway, from research it looks like everyone hates dash kits on the 350Z, because they are crappy, i like the one from www.bestbodydash.com, but i will have to see how much it would cost me to paint it myself, first.

The painted one looks sweet. I would just love a full brushed aluminum dash though.
