Very nice work Homeboy! Looks awesome! I'm sure it looks even better in person.

Bruce, I've seen it in person and you cannot at all tell it is painted! If you would like to see it and get a good chat about interiors, I suggest you send him a PM.

I had a guy who specializes in interior restoration tell me that he uses the same paint that is used for undercoating a car. He said it looks the same but is very difficult to scratch up. I plan on paying him to do it though. Sounds like a pain to get all those parts off.

Cool

Most of the parts were easy to remove. The paint has more "depth" than you can see in pics. What sold me was cleanup….just wipe and apply a coat of wax.

Followed Pelican instructions on installing SSK, since I had to do a Short Shift Kit while I had the console off for so long! Good thing too. The Short Shift Kit took a while to dial in but I did not mark the cable ends properly. It is ALL GOOD NOW!

LOVE it!
