Default my latest interior mod

I think my interior might actually be done now! Unless I go with a double din.... About a year and a half ago I got my seat package from DJ Motorsports. This past Xmas I got my VE steering wheel and I thought I was done, but then I decided I wanted yellow stitching on my shift **** to finish everything off. I was going to attempt the stitching myself but then I contacted Matt at VE, I had my old steering wheel core that I was trying to sell for $50 here on the forum with no luck so I asked if he would be interested in it for a $50 credit toward a new ****. He did better than that and swapped me straight up! Great folks to deal with. I really love the way everything looks, I have been trying to keep the yellow accents subtle, the yellow can kind of get away from you but that's just my personal opinion. I was originally considering swapping out my console cushion for black with yellow stitching but it has grown on me so for now here's how she looks.

I'd like to say "too much yellow", but nope ... that works.

Looks really good. The addition of color to the interior really makes it pop out to you.

Very nice interior, classy comes to mind
