Aluminum reveal panel trim

I am needing panel trim for an exterior Hardie Panel application.
Does anyone have a local (Dallas) source for aluminum panel trim, like:
http://www.fryreglet.com/products-revealpaneltrim.htm
I can find the z-flashing at several places, but need the outside corner trim and the vertical molding pieces.
(I called Fry Reglet, who told me that Boise Cascade is the local rep for the trim for Hardie, but Boise Cascade had no clue what I was talking about.)
I am not opposed to using another brand of trim if anyone knows where to get it.
Thanks.
You need to call them again an ask for a sales representative or ask for the local distributor for the product. How does and company have a product and not know what you are talking about??... since you are reading right from the information from there site. but then they might not carry the ones that you are looking for, so you might want to ask for another distributor from another area close to you and see if they have it.
You can try a company called Tamlyn. They make all kinds of reveals for fiber cement panels and siding. One thing to consider is cement and aluminum are not always a good combination. The alkaline nature of the fiber cement can cause chalking and flaking and discolorization of the aluminum. You need to ask for coated aluminum. Tamlyn isn't from Dallas, but there are in TX and I'm sure there is a local distributor.
Thanks ... I discovered Tamlyn back in September and ended up using some of their Hardie trim products.
This may work, saw this panel system at a trade show.
Very cool.

hey 3DK!
just wondered if you had any luck w/the Tamlyn products? Were you (aesthetically) satisfied? We're planning to use their Xtreme trim products with our 4x10 hardipanel siding. Any tips or suggestions from your experience?
BBMalone,
The Tamlyn Xtreme trim worked fine for my application. They are different than Fry-Reglet in that they are coated to accept paint rather than to be left as bare (anodized) alumunim reveals. If you wanted a contrasting reveal, I'd advise pre-painting the trim and the Hardi each color you want before installing. My panels and reveals will all be the same color, so I didn't need to pre-paint anything.
Also, since these trims are made for the 5/16" residential hardi products (which is more pliable than their commercial line), be sure your sheathing is close to perfect, so the the panels will lay flat.
Here is their catalog of trim pieces:

That link is broken now, but I definitely recommend the Tamlyn XTreme Trim. It works beautifully with Hardie siding. Plus they've got color matching flashing now, which came in very handy a couple times. Try tamlyn.com, I think that link should work.
