Default New Custom Center Console

Console is finished, finally. Painted to match rest of interior, Cadillac Redline Pearl Metallic. Cupholder gone and smoothed, ashtray and lid gone and molded in recess for 4 rocker switches, cell phone/coin compartment gone and smoothed. "SS" emblems are there for now, most like will be mounting a fuel pressure gauge there. Backed it with some pretty think material so it will hold a 2 1/16" gauge just fine.

So you pretty much just sanded the console down, and modded it up a little? Then paint

That's interesting. I rarely drink in the car but I'd like to keep the cupholder. Other than that and the color theme is odd to me, it's cool. And I also think gauges would look better in place of the emblems.

Looks good, not a big fan of red just clashing like that, but none the less badass looking in itself! I didn't delete anything but here is my smoothed center console. It will be a different color soon! Changing the interior from graphite to black with small red accents! How should I do the console if everything else is going to be black? I at least want this to contrast the rest of the interior like it is now!
