Dash trim overlays

I searched and couldn't find any pictures besides this one:



I found some old threads on here about it, but no working pics.

I understand it's just a thick sticker. I read about VCfinishes as well.

Does anybody have pictures of the sticker overlay ones like above?
I was thinking about getting a silver/brushed aluminum kit like below:




I figure it would be an eye catcher and help when I sell it. Give it a slightly more modern look.

My first thought would be to worry about the quality of the product considering the quality of their advertisements. A quality company would hire a quality translator (being a language teacher [french] that's one of the first things I noticed) So quality is questionable here. Also would it be noticed as different for better or worse?

Unlike the Nissan that's in the picture there, Our cars have a lot more rounded edges and stickers don't really do rounded edges very well. Especially in warmer climates (ex: LV, Nevada) where the glue would stay in a more liquid state. I would think that they would continue to peel around the edges and that wouldn't look good at all.

Personally I thought about this a long time ago but never really liked it the more I thought about it because of those reasons. I would personally pass on those and look into painting them properly a nice highlight colour. I was thinking of continuing the colour scheme in my car like the brown on beige and use the highlight colour as one of those (if it is beige then colour it light brown and vice versa) that way it is different , still looks good, and also would look stock to not bring down the price.

Just my 2 cents.

Thanks for the reply. I understand what you're saying and I've read others saying the same as well. However, I haven't seen any photos or anybody that has actually bought them and tried them. Just observations of their quality so far.

As for the colors.. Originally, I wanted to go with a wood grain type look, since in my opinion that suits the Alero more with its neutral colors and well... its an oldsmobile.

I'm going to do a bit of photo shopping, and see what I can come up with.

No worries. If you do it, definitely let us know how it went and which you bought because I am sure others would be interested. Hope it turns out well!
