Default Check out my new interior mod

So I spent this weekend prepping and painting some of my interior parts. I based them in white and went over it with a pearl coat. I also fabricated some new lighting elements for the center console using acrylic and LED's, I also did the blue LED's behind the instrument panel to match my alpine deck. I also went to the fabric store and got more suede to finish the interior. My wife to be and I have plans to redo the suede headliner we already did with a darker charcoal grey. We are also going to try to cove the door inserts, all the pilars, and the deck-lid panel in the same suede. Hopefully We'll get a chance to do this soon.
Oh yeah did I mention I have some DF210's and a CAI on the way.....



Here are some pics.

Let me know.

Sounds good. I'll be at the Dick's one and the Alderwood one as well. Tacoma one is hard for me sometimes since I get off work so late

Nice Job. Will you be manufacturing any of those acrylic console pieces
for the rest of us? I really like that one facing the back seat. I would
need green though. If you go to the Friday night meet in Tacoma, I will
try and be there to see them in person.

I haven't though about that? Do you think peeps would want something like that? They would have to be ok with cutting a slot in the console. Oh the kool thing about that acylic is that since it is white "after sand blasting" all you do is change the color of the LED's behind it and that is what color you get. Do you think this is something worth marketing? I was pretty eas to make.

I did not think about cutting, i guess it would depend on how well it looked
without them being on. Looks great in the pic, but I'd need to see it in
person to be a judge on if peeps would pay $$.

Good idea. I really want to make the Dick's and Alderwood mall Meet n Greets, how long do they usually last? and what time do they start?

BTW I'm not really trying to make money off of stuff like this. If there were only a couple of people that I wanted them I would probably just make it. It was real fast and easy. THey would need to supply the plex however.
