Default Who would be interested in metal Accents?

Last week I posted pictures of the tred plate mats I make for almost any car. Some of you mentioned wanting them in brushed aluminum..............I CAN DO THAT NOW!

I called the supplier up and he said he can ship some out to me. So, what would you want in brushed aluminum?

As of now, I can do......

Sub Rings
Dash Plates (actually brian does those)
Floor Mats
Trunk Mats

Wadd, how much man? I want my car to look like the final sketch Nissan Japan did of the interior, which had the metal around the two rear (not sub) speakers. Always though, "man, they should've kept that, it looks so cool". Aluminum? Thanks man.

Definitely speaker/sub rings. Choice.

Any way of getting a backing plate of some kind behind/around the seat heater toggles, and most especially the VDC switch? Could make the damned thing easier to find, too...

I saw the DIN surround you posted earlier but I was going to suggest a seperate double DIN version of that for those who want to put 2 components in place of the stock headunit.

I want to replace the exterior door handles. brushed aluminum would be cool, or anodized to match (as close as possible) to the body color.

Door handles? haha, cant do that.


Dash overlays sure, just take a pic of what you want,and an explaination and I will try it.

Speaker rings are cake

Dont quite know how much yet.......i need to ask my metal supplier what he wants for that brushed aluminum.

From experience, the tred plate aluminum is REALLY expensive, so I can only imagine what this is!

I would be interested in almost everything discussed above except the exterior door handles. Let's see some pictures and prices.

what about a replacement for the NAV door done in brushed aluminum?

Wadd,

Once you have some samples, can you post some pics? I would be interested if I can see your work.

Can we just order the material itself from you and fabricate our own parts if need be?
