Question Who has the best billet interior pieces?

I see a lot of people say real good things about MGW. I just did the Carbon Fiber kit that Rich sells and now I think it is time for the billet (Polished Chrome) pieces to go in. I looked on MGW's site and didn't see the window, door lock, or power mirror switches so it made me think if the was another Company that people were going through or is it just that MGW hasn't updated their site?
Anyway I was just looking to get some feedback with the people that have upgraded to the billet pieces, what is your opinions on this stuff?

Also Rob G, I know it is probably a one off, but I was wondering about the White A/C control back ground plate that you have, any chance of me getting one? It would look real good in my White Lightning.

Thanks for any feed back.
Bill

I have MGW's satin-finish shift handle end and the ac/heater ***** on--don't know if they have the pieces you mentioned. They are well made--maybe cornercarver or DL will reply--they know the owner.

Dan,
Thanks for the reply, I am going to get the: Turn signal ****, A/C *****, AOD ****, and the door lock pins, I was thinking of the Polished Chrome, but I thought I saw where someone had the other things that I mentioned too.

Bill, we offer billet A/C ***** and the door switch kits, in satin finish. Many companies make the A/C *****, but the place that makes the door switch kits we sell has a patent on them, so maybe that's why nobody else has them. You can check out or web site for details on the billet.

As for MGW, thier stuff is just plain awesome. They make about the nicest parts out there I've seen. I highly recommened thier billet pieces too.

MGW's pieces as compared to say UPR's is well, no comparision. I got a set of the UPR pieces for my Cobra and was extremely DISPLEASED. George at MGW is EXTREMELY picky in the pieces he sends out. The slightest nick, scratch, discoloration, it goes in the trash. He only sends out top quality pieces. Get it, you will not be disappointed.

Pluis the fact that he is Licensed by Ford and SVT.

I can't wait to see your truck with the new carbon fiber, and the billet peices.

Maybee you should add Billet pedals too.

Thanks for all the replies so far, It looks like most of you that are getting these are going with the Satin finish, has anyone went with the polished ones, or do you guy's think that the Satin finish looks better in our trucks?
I guess I might have to go with the satin finish if I want the door switches too.
Don,
I am sure I will get something for the pedals too.

Bill here's the company that makes the white face climate control overlays. http://nuimage1.com/

Also , I recommand UPR for the door switches ( easily polished ) and MGW for everything else billet. Trenz and Billet and Acrylic also make interior dress up parts.

Thumbs up

Thank you everyone for the replies, I have decided to go with the polished ones from MGW, and will get the door switches at a later date.

Rob,
Thanks for the link for the white A/C panel, I just ordered it and think that it will look great in my truck.

Bill

My girlfriend gave me some "truck jewelry" from MGW for X-mas... Very high quality pieces... I would highly recommend them...

Does anyone know how hard it would be to take the satin power window switches that PSP sells and polish them to the same finish as the MGW pieces?

Take some very fine sandpaper (1500 grit or higher) and aluminum polish (Mother's) and ALOT of elbow grease. A buffing wheel would help but you will have to continually keep polishing them since his are CHROME.
