billet aluminum glove box door trim - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

matthufham · 01-06-2006, 09:48 PM

custom piece on ebay. it looks really good, something makes me want it, but somethings holding me back. maybe the high price ($45) and the dull finish is holding me back. this would look really good in chrome.

$45? Looks like im Makin an investment soon...

**Hart_Rod** · 01-06-2006, 09:57 PM

Not a bad price. You could polish it pretty easy if you wanted.

Aquivarious · 01-06-2006, 10:02 PM

Wait, just the trim not the door... maybe not

ratrod67 · 01-06-2006, 10:04 PM

That actually looks pretty good. I'm not a fan of the ones that cover the whole door.

pissonNOS · 01-06-2006, 10:53 PM

matthufham · 01-06-2006, 11:20 PM

nice! what was the installation procedure?

Bob Moore · 01-07-2006, 12:09 AM

I like it. Looks like a way to use a lid that use to have a trim plate with out having to fill the holes.

Oh you forgot the step between steps 3 and 4.....

Then you put the piece on the glove box straight......

matthufham · 01-07-2006, 12:37 AM

i was thinking i'd use some 3m double stick i have from putting bed caps on the 95, but it's good i don't have to drill holes.

pissonNOS · 01-07-2006, 12:38 AM

the double sided tape is already on the piece, well it was on mine anyways seeing as the price went up $30 it definately should be haha

pissonNOS · 01-07-2006, 12:46 AM

Actually I persuaded my mom to go to the post office for me on her coffee break haha

70short/step · 01-07-2006, 12:55 AM

I bought that piece from them and think I was like the first or second buyer they had. I also got the trim pieces that match the glove box but they go on the bottom of the doors. I paid $25 for all 3 pieces! The price has really gone up!

pissonNOS · 01-07-2006, 12:56 AM

have any pics of the door pieces ive been considering them

I'd like to see the door pieces as well.

mocwon · 01-07-2006, 01:06 AM

One thing about billet aluminum anything.... if its not clear, color or hard coat anodized its going to oxidize and show finger prints and smudges like a big dog over time.....

**hilljob26** · 01-07-2006, 01:17 AM

maybe you ought ta put that install in the FAQ section,LOL...it does look good though

pissonNOS · 01-07-2006, 01:44 PM

I knew there was something I was forgetting

*FormerMember* · 01-07-2006, 01:51 PM

I like it, but I feel hard pressed to pay his current asking price, knowing what you guys paid for yours. So I emailed him asking if we could drop the price and told him we were discussing these, here.

Any ideas on keeping it in that condition? Like Mocwon said, the aluminum will dull over time if it's not cleared in some manner.
