I have been considering some billet pieces on the interior of my stang and just wondered if anyone else had any piece they liked or disliked? Some pieces are not too bad and others do not look right at all, what does everyone else think? anyone have any pics they can share?

I have them. Just enough pieces. I have the window and lock buttons, the lock knobs, headlight knob, e-brake handle, HVAC knobs, and Cruise Control. I'll get some pics later for you.

I used to have a bunch of Steeda Pieces then switched to MGW. I like the window switches, wiper lever, tilt, shifter surround and HVAC pieces. Never liked the cruise or speaker covers.

been considering the window switches because I painted the door pull cup gloss black and though that would make them pop a little more. I also love the shift bezel and will get one of those sooner then later.

Most of that crap is way too overdone and ugly to me; however, I'm going to buy a few things for my notch, have them anodized black, and then install them. Too much crap just looks horribly ricer to me.

The only aftermarket interior piece that I have is a shifter bezel from a Mach1...I think the billet pieces look tacky. The only ones I would consider are the window switches, and maybe the AC knobs if you have a nice shiny aftermarket stereo. Otherwise it looks like you are trying too hard.

I could not agree more that there is a limit to it and I would love to see some pics to see what I think that limit is.

Yeah, interior billet pieces can definitely be overdone. My car has the Mach 1 shifter bezel and shift knob. The speaker covers are just nasty. I wouldn't mind the headlight knob and window switches. Here is a pic that I cut from the Mustangs Unlimited catalog. Its too much IMHO...

I had the window switches, door switches, ebrake cover, shift knob, headlight knob and door locks

Took off and sold everything but the last three because I hated the look of the rest then I went ahead and added body color accents to the remaining pieces so they matched the car a little better

the speaker grills are horrible........ I am fairly sure most of us can agree, but I know some people like them and that is great.

I found the MGW pieces to be the best looking out there. I bought the satin/black AC knobs, e-brake handle, h'light knob and the shifter bezel. Beyond that the only pieces I would consider would be the door lock buttons/trim rings. Yes, this stuff can be overdone real quick.

I'm still 50/50 on getting the door handles as they are pricey. But for sure the door lock pins and the boot ring

I have the door handles but haven't put them in yet, I also have a billit piece to replace the carpet in the lower door area.
