Well I started off doing engine only mods, then I went to some exterior mods, and now I have started interior mods :D Just picked up this piece today :buttrock

Harder than I thought it would be to install of course

Installed

As far as modding the interior goes I already have:
UUC RK2 Stainless steel shift knob
UUC Ultra suede shift boot
ACS Pedals
CF Center Console

As far as future interior plans go, I plan on getting:
V1 (on its way)
Alpine indash DVD player
JL Stealthboxes
JL amp?
Some sort of component speakers
UUC or Rogue E-Brake
Suede e-brake boot
CF glovebox trim
Recaro seats
Harnesses
Harness Bar

If anyone is looking for a regular black center console or a wood trim interior setup let me know :stickoutt .

///M3Matt: ever thought about doing some other interior pieces in cf? i've seen your center console three or so different times and it's fantastic every time i see it. i'd love to see an interior trim set in cf much the way bmw has the wood trim set.

I tried it and I couldnt get it to line up perfectly. The tolerances are too small and once you lay the CF in there it wont sit in there perfectly. I really dont feel comfortable selling something that I am not 100% satisfied with :)

good policy to have. any idea of a company that does the cf trim pieces (center console, glovebox piece, etc.)?

keep up the good work, matt. you do great stuff.

btw, sorry for thread-jacking.

not sure....I know that most companies use 2x2twill (i do too) so if you wanted a console done it would match :)
