Much of my (kitcar) interior trimming, including my dash, is (was) polished alloy. I say was because I ended up HATING how much time it took to keep them clean. Every finger smudge and bit of dirt shows up, they scratch suprisingly easily, plus they can be distractingly bright and reflective in the sun.

I have now refinished them in basic aluminium colour paint with loads of clear coat. MUCH better.

Carbon fibre would be right sexy though.
A POSSE AD ESSE.

I live in my own little world, but it's okay, they know me here.
