Man, I like that. Did you cover that in leather or vinyl? Can't tell from the pic.

If you can make one with a storage compartment, then I think many people here will buy one from you.

It is covered in pleather and roughly the same height as the original+ the padded pieces available. Maybe I'll make a mold, and make one out of fiberglass with storage

Hey, that's really nice! Lot better than the aftermarket padded armrest on top of the regular armrest. Plus the regular armrest gets flimsy after a while. I agree with others, storage would be a great additon, maybe a fused always-hot cell phone charger too.

Your interior looks very nice. It looks like you have some serious upholstery skills!!

It's nice to see someone that makes their own interior parts for their car. I am like most and have to order from a vendor and pay out the yang yang.
