As the factory center console never worked for me, I have looked for ways to better it to my taste. The existing solutions are of an unfairly cost vs quality ratio, or just do not resolve my needs.
Of what I did not personally like on the original console was the high of the arm rest, cup holder size/position, and storage space. And I consider it quite ugly.
So I am going the custom route. I just cant find a veneer match for the Obeche trim, so I plan to change all trim to CF.
This is my first attempt on making a custom console.
Hopefully I will be able to finish it this weekend. As this car is going for re-upholstery in April, I just placed black carpet on the sides for now.
Not only is a lot more comfortable for my elbow, it is great to have plenty of storage under the arm rest.
