Default New stuffs, DONE!

Got this stuffs for my birfday, teasers until the dash is fully assembled. (might be a few days, having a hard time getting a friggin paint gun, or a cheap painter) Supposedly another present is on the way so who knows. I really am impressed with the pedals, look great, and are allot nicer looking in person. They are covered in sweat, because in texas, its ****ing hot. And yes my floor is dirty too. Warning, ****ty cell phone shots.

Shift **** and boot have been there for a while, although idk if ive ever shown it. I love it in comparison to stock though. Im installing a Kenwood KDC545U or something, looks nice. Anyone know any good live wires to tap into? Id really rather not tap into the radio live wire if i have the choice. Unfortuantly i gotta have two of those stupid little dial things on the inside of my car, i think this one im gunna hide under the dash.

Looks great! I'm thinking of doing the same thing but replacing with a 01-04 aftermarket head unit and painting the trim silver.

How did you prep the surface any light sanding or just clean, primer and paint?

Looks really good. I must say I was never a fan of that kind of stuff, but once you add a few nice billet pieces it really makes the interior a nicer place to be and since we spend 99% of our time in there it makes sense.

I love the silver radio panel. If I had a charcoal or dark interior I would definitely paint mine silver, but unfortunately I have beige so I won't.

Thats exactly how I look at it. Your inside the car the whole time, the interior is just important to me as the exterior.

looks good death, what do you think about the a/c overlays? do they actually light up at night like the gauge overlays? i have seen them on AM and considered getting them to match my gauge overlays but i think they kind of stand out too much in a black console your silver kinds of blends the white together

My overlay is actually silver, and yea it lights up. I got mine from UPR, and it lights up a vibrant blue. I can change the brightness of it as well. Leme get a shot of it here.

Yea, but when you darken it darkens everything. The REAL overlays have a seperate controller to set the brightness.

Huh?I have a seperate selector for bright/diming. And because it my headlight **** no longer effects any lighting in my car, i have it turned off. And Krazy, i got em from Speedhut and designed them myself with the creator.
