I saw this on Ebay

and then I saw this one
http://alkaplus.com/cgi-bin/catalog.cfm?ac...il&ProductID=40 ('http://alkaplus.com/cgi-bin/catalog.cfm?action=detail&ProductID=40')

what do you guys think? anyone tried any of these two kits?

Well Drag..


You have a 2k2 ES, which means you have the Titanium Interior.. unless you are getting GTZ Factory interior pieces I dont reccommend the CF overlays kit..

Brushed aluminum looks much closer to Titanium, and that place, the ALaplus has Brushed Titanium.. which is almost a perfect match.. you just have to ask them 4 it.. they will also send you samples..

AlkaPlus is a great company to deal with and they make high quality products. That's where I got my overlay kit from and I was really pleased.

When I got my GDI EL gauge, I had to get some kind of bezel in order to get them to look nice in the gauge cluster. So i went with the cf bezel from speedhut. and I want to keep it in one theme. if the trim kit doesn't work the way I want, then I'll get the GTZ stuff...on top of the trim kit.

Hey Chip. you have pix? I'd like to see how they turned out in your car. I saw the ones on their site, and it looks pretty good.

Cool.. I was thinking of getting the Brushed aluminum Bezel.. they even have a chrome one now too... and the GTZ stuff is factory.. so you would have to replace your titanium interior pieces..not put on top of the trim kit..

Any pics of the CF bezel installed?

Yeah..I know that...I was aiming at the overlay kit first, because I have some guages in the top DIN slot. With the overlay..all I have to do is lay it on top of it. With the new GTZ piece I have to redo the slot for my guages.

Overlay piece that covers the center console isnt that big, it just covers the front.. doesnt wrap around.. too much Titanium would show... for me.. do what you gotta do.... its your ride.. I was just postin my thoughts.

Post pics when you get it done..
