Default Vinyl Wrapped Console

So call me crazy but I've never been a huge fan of the hydro carbon console. So I decided to wrap it in black brushed aluminum vinyl. Definitely not an easy job but came out looking pretty good. I also did the interior door switches to match.

While I prefer the look of the OEM console, I have to say you did an amazing job wrapping it!

Looks good, very nice work.

Other than the radio, the console is the only part of my vette I don't like. The fake carbon fiber is so cheesy.

It wouldn't be my color choice, but you did a very nice job on the wrap.

I actually like it too.

I could even see a flat black look in my all black interior.
