Opinions on this?
From here:

It looks as if you can get other finishes - aluminimum, for example.

Well, I'd never advise smearing human excrement on your dashboard...
(as you can tell. NOT a fan!)

€125 isn't too bad.....i got quoted €175 + €60 (labour) to chrome up my dash. Brushed aluminium/chrome is all the same to me if it saves me over 100 euro

The wood one is a no no, the aluminium one is better but personally wouldn't go for it.
Maybe if there was some aluminium trim elsewhere it would look better

Well the aluminium look, maybe.
But that wood.

I also like to original look more, but to get the silver look some guys suggested you better spray your plastic parts instead of using the stickers...
The silver look reminds me of a special edition of the C*rsa

I think you'd be better better going for more subtle chrome / alloy touches like door sills/pedals/dials/ect than silver on the whole dash.
I personally cant stand fake wood effect trim in cars (think it looks really tacky) but everyone's entitled to their own opinion.

I've seen these in a mk3 Golf, look okay from a distance but when you get up close (like sat driving the car!) they stick out quite a lot and look really tacky and cheap
Its a bit more work but spraying it or addind chrome/alloy touches would look loads better
