That looks great! What did the airbag covering cost? and did you send yours in or do an exchange?

Thanks

Wow - these interiors are all awesome. I've got a Dark Teal Metallic car and am thinking of getting the console and dash items color-matched once I get my ICE installed. I've seen very few cars in this color combination, and I think it would go great inside. I can't wait!

I'm not quite sure I'm ready to make the switch to recaro seats just yet, but everyone who has them looks fantastic.

All those nice seats, steering wheels, consoles, etc. Mostly matched up with vinyl doors and dashboards. Such a shame!

I'll be taking out my center console and either doing a carbon wrap or painting it aluminum soon.

Well here's mine, it's not as nice as some of you guys have (absolutely have to ad some CF) but it works with my exterior...I think.

Cheers!

Thanks, yeah I love it.

The bumper is from Wicked Porsche in LA.
http://shop.ebay.ca/merchant/wicked*porsches
it's a 997 GT2 bumper made to go on a 996 (they have both 996 I and II).

The fit is pretty good but just a heads-up, it does need some detail body-work at the tow-hook plug, plus the cut-outs for the mounting of the led's .
I also wanted to get a closer fit at the corners where it meets lights so that took some fiberglass and putty as well (but I'm a little bit of a psycho ).
Oh yeah, the fender lining also needs to be customized 'cause the new bumper sits about 2" wider than stock.

The led lights, grills and lip are extra, make sure ya go with the stock urethane lip because the dumper sits quite a bit lower than stock.

When all is said and done (body work, electrical, paint and install) it cost over 7K but you get what you pay for.

IMO it was well worth the $.

Just finished with the turbo decklid and large CF wing now the only thing left to do is put the GT street style rear-bumper (sold at Wicked Porsche and Precision Porsche where I got the GT side skirts https://www.6speedonline.com/forums/member.php?u=31455)

Cheers!

Sid.

Where can I find a DIY article about paining the console (or any interior plastic piece) ?
