Default Downsouth Vettes does it again! - Pics

Yes, this is another feel good, I love Gerardo thread, complete with pics. As some will recall I won a free shift boot in a contest that Gerardo sponsored here on the forum. I got it, installed it, loved it. Well, welcome to my slippery slope. I immediately started checking out the DSVettes website for some other ideas. Gerardo and I made contact, I picked some basic black for most items to match my basic black shift boot with the only red to match the precision red in the console cover and red stitching on my soon to be enroute visors. Start to finish the process takes about 3 weeks. Pick your item, pick your color leather, pick your stitching and he does the rest. The quality is fantastic, simply outstanding. Anyway, here are a few photos of the deliverd items and the before and afters. Great stuff. Thank you very much Gerardo. Make sure you check out his site here:

Thanks for looking,
Paul





Have a look at the extra padding that you get with the new armrest. Really going to feel nice on the elbow on those long trips.

Why do you think he does the little give-aways? He's no dummy - its cause he knows you'll have to buy more stuff!!! You cant have a shift boot without a new matching console or e-brake boot

The center console is one of the best mods I've done. As has been said above it not only looks great (mine is cashmere) but it is sooo comfortable. Thanks Gerardo.

Rollie. The Cobalt red leather is a great match to the precision.

Looks great. I won a shift boot also, but haven't had time yet to install.
