Default Anyone have any thoughts on this?

It's a dash trim kit for 350Z looks "kinda" cool and inexpensive...any experience with these?

Thanks

^agree Carbon would look a lot better.... But i work at a vinyl shop and wouldn't even put vinyl in my car... one way or another it will eventually get f***ed up.... Take the time and get some pieces professionally painted, you will be much happier in the end

^^^If you're going to do it, do it right. Get it painted or research into painting it yourself. The Z's interior has all sorts of textures on it and I'm sure the vinyl won't stick as well as you'd think it should. Before you know it, corners will start peeling and coming up and stuff, then it could just become a mess.

Not a huge fan of stick-on interior pieces.

Esp $35.00 kits for that matter.

You own a 33+K sports car and you want to put a happymeal toy dash-kit on it?

Why would you want something that's "kinda" cool on your car?

Save your money for a legitimite mod you can be proud of.
