I don't have any experience with them directly, but have heard those overlay kits are a PAIN IN THE ASS to get just right... Time and lots of patience are required to get it to look good.

That said, eBay would probably be a good place to start...

Got it installed today.. wasn't as bad as expected, my gf did most of the lining up and I just held everything in place. The shitty part was getting the old one out and removing all of the 3M residue. Prob spent 5-7 hours on just that. Kit looks good though, nice weave in the CF and nice finish. Most of the pieces fit really well. Didn't use all of the kit though.

I'll post some up after I get my dvd/nav system installed this weekend. For some reason this board doesn't notify me of replies despite my settings.
