Console Installed

I received my console this week from Mike at MCS and installed it today. You will notice I am missing my shifter trim piece. It is coming from American Hydrocarbon but I could not wait to share the results. As you can see Mike did an excellent job and I could not be happier. I want to give a shout out to all that helped me transform my interior:

Steering Wheel-MCS
Console/Lid/Shift boot & ****/E-brake boot & handle-MCS
LLoyds Mats-RPI
Dash Letters-RPI
Carbon Fiber Steering wheel trim/E-brake button/Door button trim & Shifter trim-American Hydrocarbon

The first pic is what I started with. The rest are the almost finished product.

Nice job, it's a lot of work as I have done it too. But well worth the effort

I think it looks great, the only thing I personally would have done differently is the floor mats. Maybe black with red corvette logo or Jake.

I do intend for Mike to do the door panels but that will have to be my next project. My wife says I have spent the winter mod budget.

So did mike completely rebuild your arm rest? I checked out his web page and it only shows steering wheels as his expertise.

Yes. He did the entire console including the lid/arm rest front to back in leather. The only thing showing that is factory is the carbon fiber. He has more stuff on his Facebook page.
