I got tired of staring at my boots last night and decided to go for it. Mind you this was a very abnormal time to decide to do some interior modification(~midnight and 40 degrees outside). But after an hour and a half, braking the stock boot brackets, cussing at the huge rubber piece under the center console, beating my brain on disconnecting the Passenger Air Bag light and draining the battery completely here is what I accomplished.

This seems like a pretty good deal, no?

Definitely worth the work. Next up is a nice e-brake handle and shift ****. Any ideas where I can find some tasteful selections?

More upgrades to date. Went to Corvettes of Dallas just to poke around for a minute and get some prices. Ended up leaving with these!


As you can see, these are WAY better than the flimsy ole stockers.



Not too much, but adds a much better interior feel IMO. Anywho, I priced an install for the BB Bullets that I plan to purchase hopefully this week if turbotax gets my return here soon. That will be the first power performance mod, and will really turn heads. Can't wait to post pics of that also!

As promised, Bullet exhaust!!




I think I like this mod the BEST so far LOL. I think next I may go with some LED tails, or getting the rear lowered. Still undecided.
