Default Coupe Waterfall

I was always envious of the waterfalls in the convertibles but did want the soft top so I got the next best thing.

Very nice! Gets me thinking I wouldn't mind doing the same. All the attachments points there? or did you have to fab some stuff up?

I like it and would love to have one on mine but that price is a tad steep! I will wait to see if anyone starts making them at a lower price and if not i guess i'll have to do without

I had a waterfall that was the full width of the coupe, no carpet, from RPI Designs. Sat on top of carpet behind seats. Painted a beautiful purple pearl. Same price.

I think it looks great, the only thing that would be an issue for me is I'm constantly reaching back to lay stuff behind the passenger seat, other than that I really think it looks great, it's been constructed very nicely.

I must say I Like the look of the water fall in my C6 vert. I am not sure it would have the same effect in my black coupe as yours. I think it would blend in with the black interior.

I see what you're saying. I think I kinda lucked into the contrast with shale and blue. In my opinion I don't think there is too much you can do to add color to shale and oak (without it looking gaudy) like you can a black interior. This waterfall seems to break the monotony.
