customized interior

As part of my LS2 conversion, I also upgraded a few of the interior parts. I already did the upholstery a few years ago, but i tackled the dash and center stack this time. The gauge plate, radio panel and shifter plate are all black anodized aluminum. I also made speaker grills in the door panels and I used the same mesh to cover the dash speakers (this was anodized black to blend in with the dash). Overall I'm pretty happy with it. I don't have pics of the dash grills right now, but I'll try to take some later.

I'm liking the leather? covering on the center console. I know you didn't mention it - but it looks good.

Thanks guys. It's a Momo wheel, but I don't remember which style. The console is actually stock material, it's an OER console I installed about 4 years ago. I did cover the dashboard though, it looks and feels better than the original plastic.

I like your door speakers, they look right at home there.

The pics are still there.

I used Ultra Leather on the seats, door panels and dashboard. It's as soft as leather but more durable; much better stuff than the "pleather" most of us have seen.
