There is a couple of things that come to my mind about buying plastic chrome items, name badges and bexels. I like to buy the stuff after seeing it first like at a swap meet or if there is a local parts distributor.
But I wanted to shift this to the dash itself. I am not necessaril happy that the parts producers only have, for example the radio bezel with two holes for the radio knobs. Why has there not been some aluminum pieces like dash strips? If it were not for Covans Classics, there would not be much choice for those of us that can't make something better.
