Your looking at about $700 to $900 retail but i bet theres other companies that can do it cheaper and depending on the amount of pieces you want done. But it looks great!! I just havent had it long enough to see if it fades or cracks.

I actually found them on clubxb.com and I have been in contact with them about helping to get their name out. They seem to have some awesome stuff.

One of the new prints they have that is not posted on their website is diamond plate, it looks badass.

This is direct from them:

Kit Price and what it includes
By owning a PatternTek core kit, you open the door to adding just about any other plastic part in your car when you decide to. Since Patterntek is UV stable and fade proof, future parts dipped in the PatternTek process will match your exsisting dash kit, like you bought all your parts at the same time.

Xb kit price is $329.00 + tax. (core charge not included)
Kit includes :
1 Center Dash (Either just the silver edges dipped or the whole dash, same price)
1 Shifter Bezel Ring
2 Front Window switch plates
2 Rear window switch plates (currently not inventoried parts but is part of kit cost...Please send back to us along with OEM parts and we will mail these back to you within 10 business days for free)

For an extra $10 >> We will dip the steering wheel control plate covers and the ***** on the dash to match your kit. (currently not inventoried parts...Please send back to us along with OEM parts and we will mail these back to you within 10 business days)

For an extra $79 >> OEM Scion Shift ***** to match your dash kit.

Want to do Parts we do not currently have in stock... :
If you want to do your pillars, grab handles or any other parts we do not currently carry, you would only have to be without them for 10-15 business days and that is a true amount of time you'd be without them, no longer.

Parts to match your kit and Prices, soon to be available to the public :
Grab Handles
Speedometer
Engine Covers
Pillars
Pillar Guage Pods and more......

Core Charge :
Core charge is $175, unless local to South Florida. The core charge is fully refundable see below.


PatternTek Core Exchange Policy

As a courtesy to our customers, King Pin Enterprises Inc has purchased certain models of cores for your convenience. In order for this program to benefit our customers we must ask that the cores be received within 2 weeks of the date shipped, otherwise full credit will not be issued according to the date the core is received back as illustrated below.

Amount of credit issued if core is received back within:


2 weeks
full credit
3 weeks
50% of credit
4 weeks core return no longer accepted
Also, the core being returned must be in original factory condition. If there have been any holes drilled for alarm systems, cell phone holders or any modifications to the dash, full credit will not be issued.

.


Shipping cost :
We cover the cost of shipping the parts to you... Returning the OEM parts to us in regards to Shipping cost shouldnt be bad at all. I can tell you ground shipment is the way to go and also using the US post office helps save money as well opposed to UPS or Fed ex.
