I can't say the same about the exterior or engine of the car, but I can finally say that my interior is done. Well, almost. There's a couple of tweaks I still have to make, such as having the horn ring overlayed in black CF instead of the poop brown that it is now. But, for the most part, it's finally done.
First, a few pics of the many different ways it's looked in the past.
This is how it looked in the black tib when I crashed it:
Here's how it looked up until recently:
And after lots and lots of work the past couple of months:
My custom upholstered center bar:
Lit up:
And the list of all my interior mods, off the top of my head:
Gunmetal painted dashboard
Gunmetal painted gauge bezel
BROS gauges wine red
Red turn signal indicators
Red clock conversion
White vent LEDS
Turbulence HVAC knob conversion
MOMO Jet carbon steering wheel with silver MOMO horn button
MOMO carbon shift knob
MOMO carbon ebrake handle
Custom vinyl shift/ebrake boots
Faux carbon fiber vinyl racing seats custom fit
Pioneer AVD-P5700 DVD player with Ipod connection
Tuscani pedal covers/gas pedal conversion
Tuscani dead pedal custom fit
Tiburon SE two tone leather backseats
Compact Divisions carbon fiber door sills
Custom vinyl upholstered center bar
I'm wanting to get the HVAC lights converted to red, now that I look at these pics.
Anyway, please share your thoughts and opinions. This has been a very long time coming for me.

Looks great, if I could offer a couple of suggestions though, I'd say get ahold of a shifter surround and the big piece between the seats from an RD2 and swap them in. The prior so you have the round opening, and the latter so you have a lid on top of the rear-most storage thing.

Oh i'd love to have the RD2 shifter surround, but at this point, its too much work to get it to fit. And I did have a lid on my old console, but it was always broken. I kinda like having it open. I may do something with it, what I dont know. I used to stick my CDs there before I had my ipod hooked up.

Thanks, it matches my car color pretty closely. It's actually Duplicolor wheel paint. I love that stuff, its so durable and easy to work with.

Thanks. They're the GK pedals, a perfect fit. Only change I had to make was the gas pedal assembly had to be swapped, and the dead pedal had to be trimmed down slightly on the sides.
