the car color is awesome. the seats are nice. good looking steering wheel and head unit... but i hate a-pillar guages, i dont like the silver painted interior, and i dont like where you molded in the electronics where your arm will rest. and that shift **** is huge! Overall it looks ok, and at least its cleanly done, just not my style...

I'm not a fan of the a pillar either but it came with the car and I don't have the funds to change that as of right now along with the previous owner put a universal one on, it's actually one 2 gauge and 1 single, so that means my stock cover has holes in it, great right. The interior is not painted, also something the previous owner installed, it's one of those kits that sticks on. the car is a 93, so the paint under is ruined and there are some cracks on the drivers door panel, that this kit covers and fixes. As for where I mounted my boost controller, I took that in to consideration when mounting and before changing it took notice where my arm rested and it was no where near the three switches, so worked out nicely. The shifter ****, I'm am not happy with either and I'm looking into getting my stock own recondition at a local shop. Thanks for the input though I still have a lot of work ahead of me.

Truthfully I like the stock interior much more. Wael's interior was also nice. Your interior looks like a hodgepodge of aftermarket parts and that really takes away from the design.

I like it, there are a couple things that could be different, I really want to get my hands on that interior. I have an idea for the interior that would make it out of this world.

I think you've done a good job of integrating the steering wheel's silver/gray center spokes with the rest of the interior. All in all, I think it's very consistent. You have a good sense of styling. Like most here, I'll keep mine stock, but I've got to hand it to you, it's one of the best interior remodels I've seen.

Thank you, I appreciate that. I'm hoping to finish this tomorrow...
Steering wheel column
Plastic under Gauge Cluster
Kick panel on driver's side
Glove box install
Sunvisors
Map Light
Take off driver's door panel to start fixing

I'll take some better pics and post them.
