Not sure if its still available, but I do know the Kit became VERY expensive. I purchased mine a while ago and all in I paid £160 NEW. Now you cant get just the centre section for that, or close to that. Mine is a 55 plate HSE, and indeed the interior is'nt up to what I would expect in a HSE, so upgraded the Switches (RRS) and L/H and R/H vents, and H Section.
Piano Black is so much better than the standard grey.
Cannot remember who it was, but a few members have had theirs painted at a Bodyshop, and if done by a decent shop I can see no reason why it would last, or stand up to daily use.

Same here!
That's the quote I received here in Portugal (in euros, but in GBP it is pretty much the same right now... ):
LFAE501940 - L/H Vent trim -- 186.77€ + IVA
LFAE502210 - R/H Vent trim -- 186.77€ + IVA
LLR010248 - H Trim -- 49.42€ + IVA
LYUL500570WUX - Switch assembly -- 71.49€ + IVA
Plus P&P
I saw one of the side vents on eBay for about that price. Does not make any sense

What I think I will do is get the H trim from LR as it seems priced OK and get the outer vents painted. I quite like the metallic top of the genuine H trim.The older I get, the better I was.

Think mine was all in/delivered/incl Vat for approx £160
Well, now here it would cost about 540 GBP.
What I do not understand is that almost all of the price hike is on the outer vents, the price of which has tripled. The most complicated part (I would have thought), the centre console, has remained more or less the same. ,The older I get, the better I was.
