Default Interior Mods?

I've seen a lot of C5s with interior modifications, but not too many C4s.

Please post pics of your modded C4 interiors - seats, dash area, etc..

Well I looked and couldn't find any cool interiors. I would like to do my dash with stainless accents and maybe some cool comfortable racing seats or something. So the posters question is not out of line.

I used to have a whole roll of the "brushed aluminum" vinyl. Look around the net for a roll of that. Its the stuff you do auto graphics with and is usually cut with a CNC cutter.

Anyway, if you can find a roll of that then you can make your own custom look for really cheap. I am sure if you went to a car graphics shop, you could get a few yards of it to do everything you need.

I have the brushed aluminum kit in my car. It was installed before I got it. Has all the componets plus the breadbox eliminator. If its removable and I can get the carbon fiber kit, I will be wiling to get rid of it cheap.

My purchase was a nightmare that lasted a year. Stay away from "The Auto Accessory Store"
Maybe they got their $hit together now.
There are lots of sellers of these style dash kits on the internet
