center console
Re: center console
Here's a rendering of the new console. What do you all think. I thought about making the "CROSSFIRE" part on top open so it could be back lit but after running it, it's not gonna work as the middle parts of the "R's" and "O" wouldn't be attached to anything and when I added small bars to connect them, it looked like crap.
Enjoy!
Enjoy!

As far as the picture looking like it is angled toward the driver, I don't see it in this picture but I can't find the SEMA one everyone seems to be referencing.

Now I just need to get parts so we can get something put together to get blueprinted and then it's off to a car near you!

Re: center console
I understand.
On another note, I am planning to get a new digital camera on Monday, and I will then post some pictures of the console I have started. I currently have it cut and the resin and matting in place. I now need to rough-sand to get a basic fluid form. After that, I need to fill and sand, then sand, and sand...and fill. And then sand, sand, prime, paint, clear....and then....
Start the part near the e-brake handle.

I don't mean to offend anyone by this but without proper funding, things are going to happen at a slower pace.
