        It's a cool idea. While this incarnation may be savable somehow, you probably should -and can- re-evaluate this project and do it even better, with a result that you can really be proud of.

            Feeling pretty smart. total cost for this was... roughly 10 dollars? and that's a lot of supplies left over. I didn't want to spend money on stupid shit like this, especially more than $20 for something that wouldn't really be customizable to my needs.

            It looks like shit sure, but don't you see the rest of the interior? lol

                It is your car, do as you please. Definitely not for me though.

                        you could have bought a sheet of black plastic for about $10, that looks like an old placemat or perhaps a shower curtain? lol :p

                        unfortunately they're still going to be too low to look at while you're racing, the center vent is really the best location.

                          doing it yourself doesnt mean throw craftsmanship out the window...
                          how much harder would it have been to actually take a measurement and cut that material to size?

                          people not taking the time to do things right makes me cringe.

                            YEAH BRUH 500shot. I had to get it after my car topped out at 140

                            actually it was the only switch I had handy to test fit. I just felt like throwing on the guard for teh lulz

                            ever worked with fiberglass before? lol I didn't take the time to sand it down. You don't exactly measure beforehand, then lay the mat.
