Willow DD Finsiher

So I bought the Double Din finisher and A/C controler from Performance Nissan (www.mynismo.com) and then shipped it really fast and at a good price...however, after viewing pictures of the finisher on their website it seemed like the finisher wasn't going to match my willow interior. So I called them and asked if they had the finisher in the willow color and the guy there (Justin, I think) told me that the finisher only came in willow for 03-04. So, being that he works for Nissan and I don't i took his word for it, but at the same time I had been contacting Yosi at J-garage about the finisher. He sent me pix of what he called the willow finisher and from what I can tell they're different.

what do you guys think? should I return the one I got from performance nissan and get the one through Yosi?

not sure what to do. i want my system to looks seemless and match the rest of my interior, but I'm supposed to get my unit installed this weekend.

Do you have titanium with willow trim, or just straight willow? If you have titanium with willow trim, check out this post. I found a match. I just finished my installation this weekend, and I will post some pics. It looks great.

Been looking for titanium dash for my willow interior too. How much is the J-garage piece? Another post said it's around $350!! If that's the case I think I'll get the silver dash for $80 - $90 and paint it using khsonic03's method.

There is no such thing as a titanium dash with willow trim. Your options are either titanium with black trim, straight willow, or straight black. That's why you have to paint the ends on the titanium pieces if you have a titanium and willow interior. The dash pieces thru Yosi are around $80 depending on the exchange rate.

I have the full willow interior, I'd like the full willow finisher. i'm just wondering if the one i have will look unnatural/out of place. yosi has the full willow finisher, but he said it'd take about 4 weeks to get.

here's the price and part number from Yosi

68260-AL712 (04 Double din dash in Willow color) : 5962yen

5962 JAPANESE YEN (JPY) = 50.5803 US DOLLAR (USD) according to bloomberg.com

so that plus their 5% mark up and shipping will be maybe like $60 ish

is that worth is, or should i just be happy with the titanium/willow finisher?

Hmm, I've always thought the dull color in the 2nd pic above is the titanium finish, I have a titanium watch and it's the same dull color. I think I'll contact Yoshi for a color matching finisher just to make color matching easier.

one way to tell if what color you have is to see if your stereo buttons match the finisher (cd,am/fm,sat..). i have the willow like the pix below but i have a finisher color of the 2nd pix.
