I received my console this week from Mike at MCS and installed it today. You will notice I am missing my shifter trim piece. It is coming from American Hydrocarbon but I could not wait to share the results. As you can see Mike did an excellent job and I could not be happier. I want to give a shout out to all that helped me transform my interior:

Steering Wheel-MCS
Console/Lid/Shift boot & ****/E-brake boot & handle-MCS
LLoyds Mats-RPI
Dash Letters-RPI
Carbon Fiber Steering wheel trim/E-brake button/Door button trim & Shifter trim-American Hydrocarbon

The first pic is what I started with. The rest are the almost finished product.

Nice job, it's a lot of work as I have done it too. But well worth the effort

I think it looks great, the only thing I personally would have done differently is the floor mats. Maybe black with red corvette logo or Jake.

I do intend for Mike to do the door panels but that will have to be my next project. My wife says I have spent the winter mod budget.

So did mike completely rebuild your arm rest? I checked out his web page and it only shows steering wheels as his expertise.

Yes. He did the entire console including the lid/arm rest front to back in leather. The only thing showing that is factory is the carbon fiber. He has more stuff on his Facebook page.

Very nice! Adding some color to an all ebony interior is a nice change up.


I did some thing similar in dark grey.
