not to throw a spanner in the works, but you should really think about aiming the subs INTO the cabin...lest you bassload the boot and things start sounding like poo :P

looking very bright!
but damn...was hoping to see the rear seat pics. i'm looking forward to them and have a rethink about the shifter boot - you'll be getting a b3m supplied twm short shifter soon - might look better to make the boot shorter so there isnt as much play in it? my boot (i made out of black kangaroo leather) has about the same look as yours now even with the twm shifter |

dude that is bright!!!!...if its not hte final product, and you do play around with it as you go, i'd definantly suggest breaking it up a bit...but otherwise, top work. Can't wait to see the rear seats...i think they'll set it all off, then get everything back together and we can have a fair decent look at the .... red. so much red :P
Have to agree with twiggy on the shift boot...that thing is going to absolutely HAVE to be modified, without a shadow of a doubt. I can take a photo of what my boot looks like if you like (stock boot with TWM shifter) and it looks a bit crappy.. not to mention when the mrs spills drink, it pools in the boot and goes all festery and yuck.... but yeh, looking great.... think VERY carefully about how you light it though.... that much red, plus red lights could induce epileptic fits... try and get something that will contrast that red down a little. But yeh, top stuff mate, top stuff. |

Love the red. Love it. I say go all red - carpets and dash as well.
That's the sort of thing a show car is about - impracticality! Reminds me of this, which looks awesome all the one color. http://www.vwrx.net/images/vwrx/12.jpg http://www.vwrx.net/images/vwrx/15.jpg http://www.vwrx.net/images/vwrx/24.jpg

Im guessing the centre console needs to come out to fit the shifter so when its out ill get another one done to suit the short shifter. Can't wait for it to get here

Once the rears are done we will have patterns so it wont be overly hard to change anything...obviously we'll have to pull it all apart but thats not hard so we'll see what time brings, the reason i started the interior now is it gives me an opportunity to put it in, roll with it and decide what needs changing prior to its show debut.

Never been a fan of interiors and stuff - yet I've worked a bit in the past on both sound and interior and I have to say this I like your colour contrast. I once suggested it to guy and Maybe calling it a supperman effect turned him off, but I like it.
Can't wait to see it totally finished it looks great. |

Yeah I was worried about the colours but as soon as we finished some parts I threw them straight in to see and yeah it took shape from there
