Default Dash kit help.

Hey everyone I'm about to buy a 06 gt with beige interior and I would like to know where do you guys get your dash kits at? It has beige interior and has the factory aluminum dash I would love to get the black cover over the aluminum.

Please help?

Thanks

My 06 had the most boring interior ever. Dove gray over dove grey. I installed a carbon fiber kit from ebay. Fantastic quality. The seller may have what your looking for.

Yeah the install is sorta tricky and I did do it myself. It just sticks on after you clean everything off very good. I rubbed it down with some alcohol about 4 times. It really needs to be clean to get a good adhesive. Mine is stuck on for sure. Took me maybe two hours total to get it all in there. I went real slow. There is a DIY write up in the sticky section on how to do it.

I got my carbon fiber kit from ebay. It looks awesome but i had it professionally installed. It is the best bang for the buck. The only issued i had was the shifter boot kept on coming off due to the increased height which i adjust continually whenever it comes off.

Cool I am glad you are happy. I have an auto so I cant comment on your shifter boot issue. This kit really dresses up the interior big time. I shouldn't have waited 3 years to do it. It is well spent money.

I have to agree the dash kit significantly improves the interior of our mustangs. I got the carbon fiber version and it set the inside off. It contributes to my winning in the local car show in my area.
