I think it would look 10x times better than the "gray" ones we currently have. If the quality was good, I'd be interested...

it looks really sharp. $100 is pretty steep though.

Actually looks sweet but this is an easy do it yourself. You can get paints that will give you that black chrime finish. ~$8 or $100? You decide.

Around the gauges looks sexy, not so much on the wheel.

I dont know the quality thats why I posted... looks good though. as for painting myself, Yea. I dont think so. 100 bucks... too high, although he is having to buy the parts so im sure thats part of it. maybe an exchange would be the better setup....

even that though, this is probably one of the easiest paint jobs you could do. just carefully snap off the pieces of you want to paint and hit em with 2-3 light coats.

it feels good when you do something yourself too haha

I think it looks alright. I think these would compliment the whole black theme going on there. I bought a few a while ago, but forgot I even had them!
Just a little something to add. I got them to cover the scratches from putting the key in.

The eBay member is 6liter on here. I have all of his interior pieces and love them. They are all amazing quality and well worth it. I can tell you right now you wont get the same look with a few rattle cans.

Edit: in my build thread I have a link to his website. Also, yes he does do a core exchange.

$100 way over priced, cheaper if you DIY and it will look just as good for half the cost
