Ditching The Center Console?

[Jand3rson]

I like my center console, but I think this would look really good in the right car, and done right.

What I want to get is a non-power window center console, and relocate my window switches to a hidden spot I have picked out. Then I've kicked around the idea of not having a leather shift boot, but one like the one shown above, and something done around the edges of the opening for the shift boot to clean it up, like a CF trim ring or something.

So what are you going to do about the cut carpet under the center console?

Are you talking to me? I have no idea, like I said before, it was just an idea I was kicking around. I'm sure I'd could probably figure it out.

Yeah I was just thinking about cutting another piece with a circle inside (like a donut). Make it out of something cool like alacantara or something.

I like your aim.

Here's a photoshop of what JamesE30 was thinking about doing to his car. I think it gives a clean look to the int.

...damn photoshop mirrored the picture... but the tach is correct...weird...

I really like how the "floormat" was made to cover the factory holes in the tunnel carpet. This would definitely be a nice touch.

I seem to take my center consol out once and a while and go drive D1 style. It's just fun and like was said, you can always put it back in.

What are you planning for around the heater core area?

wait who's whip is this?

looks nice, not to go off topic but im looking for a well known seller for those floor mats

[HippyEarly]

home depot sells diamond plate

+1
my bet is the guy fabricated it himself.

[HippyEarly]

And not to stay off topic but a dimple died floor mat would be way more dope. And out of all of that race car goodness you see the DP? Not the sweet cluster or the lap timer looking thing by the light switch, or the 8-track player hiding behind the steering wheel :P

But you could for sure do the DP yourself with a cut of tool. angle grinder / jig saw
