Hey guys, Like most GS's my wooden panel was all effed up (the one next to shift ***), I sanded it down to the aluminum and painted it black, but then that kinda looked to plain, So I looked at the DIY post on how to take off the Shift panel, I cut some vinyl and see how it would look, Tell me what you think please.

A for effort but there has gotta be a better material. Don't they sell pre made carbon fiber peices on ebay that you can cut with a dremel tool and apply somehow.

Yeah I know what you mean, Like i thought the concept was good, Like when I sanded down the aluminum and painted it black it looked good, but I felt like I needed something else,after I put the carbon fiber vinyl i was thinking....this feels ricer...thats why I was wondering about ur guys ideas and thoughts

you could always just order a dash kit. Heres mine, 15 pieces, but I left 3 of them out. 160 total for the kit or close to that, the piece around the shifter was optional but only an extra 40$. Excuse the ash around the shifter panel and my F- camera skills. The colors the same (oem match) throughout. Notice we both have backpacks on the passenger floor haha

or you could have everything refinished and look like stock instead just some stick on kit...

Yeah Lol, Daily grind :School,work Hence the backPack, Yeah I was thinking of wood vinyl, But I decided to go back to flat black, After sanded the aluminum, I rather have a more plastic feel, if theres a plastic cover availabe somewhere.

Yeah for the wood kit for 160$ that looks beautiful, are they plastic or are they stickers and where did you order them from? thats an amazing deal

The kit feels like a mixture between rubber and plastic and does stick on using a 3m adhesive product and liquid. I have mixed emotions about it. Some of the measurements arent 100%, as you ca see for yourself (between the climate control and vents on the left side, see how it angles up, the long piece on the bottom was a tad too long and i had to work it in, also notice the dome light area) and it does have somewhat of "fake wood" look, but im just a f'in picky OCD mutherF'er. BBUUUTT overall it looks alot nicer then the black plastic/grey vents/ and chipped wood grain (plus 95% of girls dont know the difference when they see it and go "oooh, woodgrain ") so im happy
