Default A better cover

Found this console cover for C7. Good price. Thinking of putting a little foam under cover for added protection against the dents. Or just this cover alone.

I can't comment on the cover, but I and many others on this forum have had bad experiences with Corvette Mods. Do a search and you'll see there's a reason why they are no longer an approved vendor on the forum.

What is the big obsession with protecting the arm rest. If it wears out buy a new one. It takes about 30 seconds to replace it.

It's not a workmanship issue it's a design issue. They obviously spec'ed very low quality foam. Have to remember only 65% of this car is North American content. That means 35% comes from China most likely. Kind of sad if you think about it.
