Bad@ss
That is pretty bad@ss looking. I can't decide between the classic brushed aluminum or the black brushed aluminum.
That is the first kit I've seen that actually replaces the factory dash pieces. When my wife first got her '00 Taurus she wanted it to have a woodgrain dash. I ordered own of those dash kits that are made of veneer. It was around $300 if I remember correctly. Anyway, we got the thing and I held it up for her to look at and it looked like crap. The flat veneer didn't blend in with the rounded edges of the dash at all. I ended up sending it back for a 25% restocking fee.
She was looking over my shoulder when I was looking at the Lightning dash kit and she said she wished they had something similar for her Taurus.
Of course $500+ is a bit steep for plastic cosmetics in my opinion.

Picture clarity isn't so good because my camera defaulted to night mode.

Definately get us some photos in the day time. I'd really like to see this. I think it's going to be my first modification to the Lighting.
Was this guy easy to deal with?

Sirus,
Rich is very cool, he accepts Paypal (big plus in my book) and he shipped the next day. I think I ordered on Monday night and got the kit Thursday. I'll post pics later today if I can.
