I got mine off ebay for 76 bucks, but that's before our civics started to become more frequently seen on the streets. I'm just glad i made the investment before prices skyrocketed for these kits. I got everything, from the vents, console and even the e brake area.

I don't recommend any of those aftermarket kits unless its a REAL BRUSHED ALUMINUM KIT. Most of the kits have an EPOXY coating that tends to crack under heat.

Try Alkaplus.com if you still want one.

if you want to gt a WHOLE kit, not just the console, nopi online has real carbon fiber kits in an array of colors and types from a fairly reputable manufacturer.

You know I noticed that the "OEM" aluminum kit, or at least the one they had on the honda at the dealer when i visited it, is the same crap as the one they have at ALKAPLUS.com. It's NOT real brushed aluminum And BTW the one that ALKAPLUS sells is NOT real carbon fiber. I'm not sure about the one that Honda sells you. But it's prolly too expensive for what it is. But at least you get some kind of warranty with it dont you?
