Interior Details

[blackcell3]

I was looking at the interior to my car, and it dawned on me, its not really that sporty as is, i mean its cool, but just nothing really catches your eye. whole interior is tan except for the dash. i was just wondering if anybody knows of (or has done) anything to just bring out the true sports car feel in these cars? any suggestions? (also gotta keep the cost kinda low, so nothing drastic)

well what I do is strip the interior.. put in a roll cage.. and paint everyting.. then I throw in some bride seats and call her good..

i think if he were going with gay on the shifter trim...maybe like a lil hawiian necklace. but i think he means somewhere in the middle like a reverse boot color or two tone boot color. like black and red...or black and tan

el glow- just get sick of looking at the nasty orange at night.

shifter trim: http://www.3sx.com/store/comersus_vi...dProduct=24892

LED change:http://www.midnight-haze.com/interior/ledconversion/ i don't mean multi colored LED rope light. i'm talking about stock interior lighting. the orange is just so ugly

pedals are just personal preference.

even the recent thread of the nice white vr-4 on ebay has the diamond floor mats. i'd get them just to make my car easier to clean.

by the way, if you want something a lot of us don't have:

i read how to make a cup holder out of the ash tray hole once. look it up and see if you would like to do it. i HATE having to open the arm rest just to grab my drink. if it's a bottle i stick it between my seat belt and my seat, but a can.. ugh.

it really gets in the way of shifting...alot

Just don't start painting random pieces of plastic, like the heater vents, radio trim, etc. So tacky.

i took my ashtray out, and took a piece of plexiglass and made a guage monut for my battery gauge, looks clean as hell, i think

[Crackhedbob341]

if you wanna test it to see what i mean, pull it out really quick (it just pulls right out), and stick a soda can in the hole. thats the best case scenario and it's still annoying.
