Where can I get some brushed aluminum trim for my dash??

I've looked every where. I can't find anything to do my dash and console trim parts in brushed aluminum. Any help would be great.

I work in the lumber business in St. Louis and I am pretty sure that if you find a supplier in your area that sells plastic laminates, (such as Formica,Wilsonart,Nevamar) They should be able to get brushed aluminum for you. I have bought it before for customers doing elevators and stuff.

I was going to say the same thing. Since most of those are just some type of overlay you can get quite crative if you really wanted to.

If you absolutley must have real aluminmum, buy your stock metal & use a belt sander on it with a slightly worn fine grit belt. Looks just like brushed finish.

Just so you know,Wilsonart makes a whole line of aluminum stock. It is sold in sheets and they probably have 10 or so different patterns of different finishes. Here is their #.1-800-433-3222.They call it their Decorative Metal line.

I found a couple of places that sell vinyl that I can cut and stick anywhere I want it.
