Default recarpeted, aluminum pedals, other interior stuff in a 95 T/A

There are entirely too few LT1 T/A's around here. With that said, my winter interior projects included changing some silver accents to black, making my speaker covers the same aluminum mesh that's in the vents, installing autovation aluminum pedals, and recarpeting the whole thing in true black. Some probably won't like how much mesh there is in my car, but I was hoping for a theme that says "if it isn't actually aluminum, it shouldn't be colored like it." Having plastic painted silver got on my nerves, it had to change. Now the only remaining charcoal-colored pieces are the seats.

Oh and I polished up the engine bay...again you don't see a whole lot of LT1's these days...

i like everything except for the middle speakers, i dont like how you can see through that mesh, but otherwise a great idea and a good job following through with the uniformity.

hmm interesting...
I like the polished stuff under the hood, the stickers kinda kill it for me though. What is the mesh on the interior?
LT1's are cool with me.

I bought the carpet from www.auto-interior.com, $199 for firewall-->rear deck. Very quick and cheap shipping on their part. Thanks for mentioning I painted all the pieces Spuds.

I'm totally with you about the stickers...looking to get a polished aluminum radiator shroud real soon Oh the mesh is just some aluminum I got off ebay, originally designed for the ricers who put it all over their bodykits. Great thing about it is it's so soft you can basically cut it into any shape with industrial scissors.

This is one of the few interiors that has been tastefully redone. Good job man.

I'm thinking you can only see through it because of the flash.
