Dash Kits

I have an 03 black on tan CTS. The interior also has some gray plastic same color as the dash. Im looking for advice here. I recently saw an 04 black on black that had a brushed chrome or something or another dash kit put on it. It went on the steering wheel around the shifter door handles etc. Im curious what you guys would think about how it would look on the tan interior and the fact that i have woodgrain on the shifter and wheel. any one have this done?

I dont think it would look good at all but everyone has different taste. Try it and post up some pics?

I have a bit of a mix of brushed aluminum & dark woodgrain on my Yukon (w/ black int) and it looks good, but I think a tan interior w/ some gray, you would have a lot going on there.

Your kit looks great. Where did you get it? Any issues with long-term fading/chipping, etc.? I'm seriously considering the aluminum to spice up my interior, but I don't want it to go to h#ll in a few years (even though my factory dash is already peeling, but the dealer is fixing that now under warranty).

What about carbon fiber with black on tan and black Crested Floor mats? On a sport packaged Raven black CTS.

I only have woodgrain on the steering wheel and shifter....that does look nice where you get it from?

I would like to put on a wood grain dash kit of some kind. The interior of my 07 is black on black. Are these kits difficult to put on? Where is a good place to purchase it? I am thinking of LGT Dash in Markham, Ontario.

I always post this when dash kits come up on here. My seats are grey/black inserts so i didn't want the real wood look. Subtle , blends in with the grey and black stock dash.
