Default Aluminum tid bits

I am looking to add a few more aluminum accents to compliment the others in my car, but don't want to go to bling.
I was thinking aluminum pedals and dead pedal, aluminum door handles, ignition switch cover, gas pull release, and possibly the rings around gauges (not sure about this one)
Where would you suggest I purchase these items? I have looked around, but was looking for others feedback on vendors and quality of products.

Thanks in advance.

I just have the aluminum gauge rings...the kind that Gert (www.carnewal.com) sells that fit inside the gauge bezel, but don't cover the inside. They don't look blingy to me, and they nicely enhance the look of the instruments, IMO.

What you do depends on the look you are after. My car has a black interior, and I wanted to do something to brighten it up just a tiny bit without going too "Miami Vice".

UPDATE: I just checked Gert's site, and he does not currently list the gauge rings. They are available through other sources, but the "inside the bezel" ones are not as easy to find as the "over the bezel" ones.

I recommend www.armaturenringe.de for the bezel rings. Great product and decent price.

Here's a thread from a group buy with pics. https://rennlist.com/forums/showthre...&page=10&pp=15
