I received my blanking plate today from the guys at !n-joy Car Life and I thought I'd post up a review.
The plate was ordered as a preorder item, so I knew I had to wait a little bit. The wait was certainly worth it! I ordered an old fashioned double din blank, since I don't have the need for gauges or anything. They had various powder coating options but I chose flat black, to fit the rest of the factory interior. The plate came wrapped to avoid being scratched, and also came with 4 screws for the install as well as 2 !n-joy stickers. The plate is amazing in quality, the powdercoating was very well done and the metal looks like it was CNC'd very well. The plate was a perfect fit and looks amazing! One nit-pick I have, is that the included screws could be a millimeter or so shorter, because I tightened them down a little too much, causing some very slight poke through on the front side of the bezel (you can see in pictures). Maybe I tightened it down too much to be safe, but a MM or so shorter would help, that or a very thin washer to shorten it just a hair. Here is one good pic of it installed, I'll get some better shots later when the sun is out and I can clean my interior up.
Very nice work guys, the $35 shipped price was definitely worth it! If you want a blanking plate don't hesitate to go with these guys!
Verdict - 2 thumbs WAY up!
