do you like the travel buddy cup holder?

is the 2 cup in the way of passenger?

do you wish you had a 1 cup instead?

your blue accents look subtle, not overdone like a lot of custom c5 interiors.

The 2 cup holder is great, when I sit on the passenger side it does not bother me at all (and I’m not small) the second cup also doubles as a sunglasses, cell phone, etc. holder

Looks good! Where did you get the long blue trim strip that goes around the radio bezel? Been keeping an eye out for a place that does those for quite a while.

Thanks. Any chance you have a pic from the other side of the console so I can see where the radio bezel strip ends up at?

Looks really nice, especially the radio bezel trim, never saw that before.
The only thing I don't like is the trim around the air bag, maybe try the 3d corvette lettering in blue.

If you need some mats, go with Lloyds and go with the vinyl piping in blue, that would like nice.

Are all the leather pieces with the piping trim from Redline, they look really nice.
