I like the stock look, it never seems dated like Billit of the 90's

Re: What do you guys do instead of these?

Ive never been a fan of the silverado dash and door trim and pull straps on 81-87's so I went with the base model dash and door trim and deleted the pull straps.

Another option you could think about with the billit aluminum would be to powder coat, paint, or cover with vynal or leather.
