I have no center console! it is with C5 KIDD.

I have been driving it with no radio bezel and center console, for two weeks so far. Going on dates is a little weird with no center console. But it will be worth it in the end.

BTW my brother had the camera, and now its too dark to take pictures.

Hood seal? Hood seal! That's for beginners!

Step up and do some serious mods!

You haven't modded until you've spent over $1,000 for a new cat-back exhaust, or $2,000 for new seats, or $10,000 for a new blower and hood, or $1,000 for a set of LT headers or $4,000 for new wheels and tires or...

....I got it too. In the last month I've bought a Blackwing, Plugs & wires, drilled/slotted rotors, a stealth box, amps, alpine head unit, eclipse seperates, an NX Naf nitrous kit with all the bells and whistles, an extra remote, Z06 shocks, Z06 springs, Z06 sway bars.....floor mats...it will never end. By summer I'll probably have done cam/heads/intake if not a big motor. I need help too.
