Hi again guys, I had a question about dashboard kits. I'm very interested in an aluminum-look inside my svt, I saw the glue on kits from www.discountdash.com and I was very impressed! I was wondering, however, if anyone knew of any kits where you could find a kit that involves just taking out the black plastic pieces and replacing them with silver ones, or any other high quality site that sells aluminum dash kits for contours. Thanks alot  ------------------ --Dr. Fate 2000 SVT Contour Silver Frost #1730 of 2150

I looked for a long time for exactly what you are talking about. Nobody makes one, trust me. Even if you had one made, it would cost a ton of money. I personally have the discountdash kit and I love it. I get a lot of complements and the price wasnt bad either. Just trying to help out.

Why don't they include the piece for the shifter? I think that is stupid! That would make the whole kit worthless! I have a ATX, and I would think they would include that also.

This site has a simulated carbon fiber dash kit for about $164! 12 pieces including shift plate and around the radio! I might have to get this one myself. For real carbon fiber, it will cost you almost double, I don't know the difference. http:/www.autodash.com/details.lasso?sn=390&pn=CNTR98 I hope this will fit my 2000 SE Sport!

Sorry about these posts, I am very tired! The company I am referring to is www.flautotrim.com I couldn't view their kits for Contours, but I e-mailed them to ask for info/pricing. They do have aluminum! ------------------ 2000 SE Sport Deep Navy CC Metallic Midnight Blue Cloth Factory wheels are as clean as the day I bought it!

Though the real aluminum kit sounds promising, it's listed as a 95-99. The dash was redesigned in 98 so I would be wary of fitment problems. ------------------ Louis Wang Austin (Aug-May)/Sugar Land, TX 1998 Black E0 #3826, lightly modded

I got a simulated carbon dash kit from discount dash. They are actually very good kits. The kit does not include the shifter ring but it has a piece that goes in front of the center console that looks really good I took pics but they came out crappy there was to much light glare in them to post. If you want I can E-mail them to you.
