I have done both, and I am happier with the brushed alum look dash kit. Painting the dash was a major pain in the rear. Have to take the parts out, sand them down, primer them, sand, primer, paint, sand, paint, paint, and then install the parts. Then you might have to re-do the paint due to scratches, fading, etc.

I got the Brushed Dash kit thru SyntheticDesigns.Com, and it was super easy to install. Clean the parts with some ISO alcohol, and then peel the tap off the kits, heat it up with a hair drier so it conforms better to the part, and press and hold it on the part for about 1min. The 3M tapes that come with the kit are great, and once it’s stuck, it’s STUCK.

Here is a shot of my dash, when the sun hits it, oh man its nice! =)

check out my interior work - painted - but he's right you have to keep repainting it every so often. scratch's alot when you take people with you.
