When I got my Mk 2 in 2003 I got this kit from eBay for about the same price. I think it was about £80 from Citroen!

It's alu coloured plastic.
Most of this stuff starts looking tatty pretty quickly. Just a waste of money.
It's better to save up some dosh, buy a CNC machine and make some real stuff...
And sell to all of us...

When I had my Astra van, the centre dash piece was black, on the SRI it was silver coloured like that one.
I took mine out and sprayed it metallic silver, same as the van, gave it three coats of lacquer and polished it up. It looked at least a million times better than the factory silver trim.

I disagree I believe it was alloy and it looked as good after 9 years as it did when new
It just brightened the interior up a bit.

The listing states 'plastic trims in aluminium effect'
