Interior aluminum modifications

I am wondering what polished aluminum modifications can be made to the FC's interior that I don't already know.

I mean, here are some examples: Momo Trek steering wheels, aftermarket shift ***** (Please name some brands for whatever you suggest) like Sparco's Bio ****... Team Voodoo handle brake. Momo Superturismo pedals... What else?

I have aluminum pedals, yup. I won't be doing the aluminum dash trim stuff, cuz it peels and I've got a better plan for my dashboard, anyway. But I found this crazy thing... an aluminum trim thing for the gauge surround. Like, inside the gauge pod.

Ya on ebay they sell an aluminum gauge bezel for around the stock gauges. Um..I think somewhere I've seen MOMO aluminum door sills. And I know I've seen aluminum floor mats. If someone made a real aluminum trim kit I would go brushed aluminum for my car. But right now most of the stuff I can find it in carbon fiber.

They got some on ebay but they say they're for mostly civics and integras and stuff. Might be able to work though.

custom fit = taking something universal and making it fit (do it yourself!)

(hint)
