Does anyone know where to get good looking titanium dash kits for the G20?
I'm Looking more for the machined finish look, not the one with the gloss(shinny)....
I found this site: http://www.iptdashkits.com/9901titanium.html and it is exactly what i am looking for, if you go to samples page you can tell the difference. But Damn 260 bucks for some metal!?!?
Anyone know where to get something like this but not at such a crazy cost? :(

Turbo:

You can try Joshua Wood Trim (http://www.woodtrim.com) . I got my brushed aluminum kit from them. Forgot what I paid. I installed it myself and it was fairly straight forward. I'll try to get pics up as soon as I can.

I wanna see Pics!!! did you get the real aluminum look? i saw them for 219.00 that's a 40 dollar savings :D !!!
What did you use to sick them on? do they fall off easy? does it give the car a classier look, or the rice rocket look?

you wont be able to find any real titanium dash stickers (that's what i call them) due to the property of Ti...they are extremely strong and hard to bend, you wont be able to produce the dash stickers at a reasonable price with Ti

Hey try this site www.legendfive.com. I just got my mom some new carbon fiber dash kit for her TL. They have all sorts of different dash kit trim for p10's & p11's.

So basically what your sayin luke is that in order to get the real titanium dash kit i am going to have to stick with the high prices? Well, if there is no choice i guess i will pay for the high price... :( Wanted to just see if anyone knew of a cheaper deal for the titanium....

Hey v-knot, that picture you posted up, is that real titanium, or is it the plastic/titanium?

And the sections they show in that sample are aluminium.

I'm assuming it's an Al/Ti alloy...

One more thing.... I thought titanium was pretty flexible in comparison to aluminium. I'm not saying its bendy, just easier to bend than Al. It is lighter, and of course it costs a whole lot more......
