Default My 1k Interior

I originally posted my interior here. Well it's no longer an 800 interior so I made this thread with all the updates. Enjoy.

Before:

After:
New Shift boot, E boot, Arm rests, Center rest, air bag decal, Door pulls and seats.
UPDATED:E-brake handle, shift ****, steering wheel and CF vinyl Radio Bezel


Before:

After:
I posted a DIY on the ebrake, shift **** and door pulls here


Before:

After:


Carbon Fiber Vinyl Radio Bezel: Coolarrow gave me a lot of advice on how to do this. This was my third try. There are a few issues with it. I'm waiting for some 94 primer to come in and I'm going to give it another try. I'm feeling pretty confident with the technique now. I'm going to take step by step pics and post a DIY on it.
Still not sure if I like the look, but I do like it better then the clearcoated stuff. The CF vinyl is glossier then the picture shows but still has a leathery look and feel to it.




Did the Lettering and Strips on my FRC's. More to come on the engine bay later



Custom two-tone steering wheel (motivation by JETZ): 189.00 = West Coast Corvette
Door Arm Rests: 99.99 - Corvette Mods
Door pulls: 35.00 - Mid America Motorworks
Shifter **** and ebrake handle: 70.00 Mid America Motorworks DIY Thread here
Center Console Rest: 84.99 - Corvette Mods
E-Boot: 47.99 - Corvette Mods
Shifter Boot: 44.99 - Corvette Mods
Pass air bag Decal: 14.00 - ebay
White Gauge face: 87.00 - Corvette Mods
Aluminum Gauge Bezel: 54.00 - ebay
Carbon Fiber Vinyl Sheet: 50.00 MetroRestyling
Two-tone Leather seats: 266.00 +20 two-tone +20 shipping - ebay
These are the guys I got the seats from Ebay Real Leather Store
But Beware! check their feedback. It seems like some people are very unhappy with their product. It also takes them a long time to send it to you. I had to wait a month before getting mine. I took a chance on buying them from those guys and I'm very happy with what they sent me. They dont seem to be very consistent though. Also, They list their store is out of houston TX yet all the seats ship direct from China.
TOTAL = 1042.96

Great job. Really looks good. I have one question well actually a couple. First easy did the white gauge faces go on. Second, did you order the complete set and just not do the Tech and Speedo?
