When I redid my interior I stripped off the original vinyl and glued on
some extra vinyl from the interior kit (from SS) to the aluminum pieces.  I
then replaced the badly worn cardboard above the dash with aluminum strips
which I also covered with the same vinyl.  Not exactly stock, but since the
vinyls all match it looks good.
