Added some Show

[bigcat]

since we have an in-house upholsty shop at work, i had them add some interior show pieces. they made me a new shifter boot and recovered the console lid. they used carbon fiber vinyl with french seams for both pieces. they also added some padding to the console lid. it is much more comfortable now.

what do you think? other than tint, this is the only non "go fast" mod i have.

Looks good. What's the cost of the project in total?

 

[bigcat]

for me? cost of materials retail cost would depend. one off pieces are time consuming. if there were a demand for many of the same pieces, prices would go down. you know how it works. also, material choice would have a huge factor in the price.

once the patterns are made, it is really a pretty easy job. i could do this at home if i had sewing skills, but i dont.

it can be arranged. since the rules state that we cant talk about selling things in the discussion forums, anyone interested please PM me and i tell you who did mine.

any good upholstry shop should be able to make these for you.

Boot and console

They look great!

Sure wish the console door were hinged on the right.

Armrest Pad

Did you look into having them make a pad for the armrests on the door to match the center? That is the one that really bothers me as being too hard.

 

[bigcat]

nope, i just did these, becasue they are easily removable parts. i have not had the door panel off to see how the armrest is attatched. if it screws on, then it could be recovered.
