Default lots of new little appearance mods!

First off my interior project is only about 75% complete. Still a lot of minor little things I need to go through and replace. Interior was gay graphite. I've learned my lesson to save up and buy everything at once for a project rather than buying 1 thing at a time. I should be finished by summer time.

Hurst Pistol Grip Shift ****


New Lloyd mats




Sirius Sat Radio ( i did this little mod myself) and yes I have a shift boot I am just waitinf for the shift boot ring from farmer2! I'm eventually going to mold the "holder" into the console, this is just temporary until I have more time to do this. Damn school.


yea i know wire mess but whatever it'll be covered up




Used C6 Vette Tips got these for $5 a piece!




My shinny interior panels. Still need to do the doors but it is impossible to find someone with a couple yards of red pleather or leather that doesn't want an arm and a leg for it or that will actually respond to your request for an order.

I'm not a big fan of painted/shiny interior, but if it makes you happy

I think your left exhaust tip needs some attention, it looks a little too far to the left instead of being centered.

I would show before pics but fuelslut is down and out (my photo host was through them) and I'm still at home and my pc is at my apartment at school. Yea I know, I just put them on last night, it was dark and dinner time by the time I got them welded on. All I need to do is heat up the pipe from the muffler and bend it the right way. And yes it is whatever makes me happy. I get a lot of ooooOOOoOOoOs and aaaaaaHHHHhHhhhhs and thats pretty cool from it. If I weren't a poor college kid I'd get them wrapped in leather. But anything is better than how the stock grain looks. And the dash is painted, bet you wouldn't have guessed that lol.

Looks good, but I'm also not a fan of painted/shiny interiors. I do like the way you molded a spot for the satellite radio, I need something like that

how do you like the hurst pistol grip? ive been cosidering it. a was gonna get the white 6 speed ball, but theres quite a few guys around here that have them, and ive always liked the vertical pistol grip. what shifter do you have it on? and from your pics it looks like it sits pretty high. is it really that high, or does it just look that way...

painted at different times and i think i used 1 more coat than i did on the others and thats why it is darker. Not a big deal tho I've got a few yards of carbon fiber I want to mess with and try wrapping those in. either way my car is still a big Work in Progress

No way in hell would I paint the hatch like that.

The pistol grip is awesome, I love the feel of it and I can shift just as fast as with the stock shift ****, it just sits higher. I've got the SLP short stick/shifter.

No HUmount. I plan on getting a double din dvd unit to take up that space. But that'll have to wait I had to get two new front tires this morning thanks to the construction going on right next to where I park for work. Luckily they said they will reimburse me for the losses (actually documented).

Im loving the Shifter! Rather keep the interior stock, but each is to his own. Good luck with the car!
