Wow!

I like that!
What side skirts are they? I agree on the centre console as well. Very nicely done.
I like the modified steering wheel as well.

Looks tidy, but where did the gear selector go on the modified centre console?

Good point.
You can see it in the first pics. Then it ... vanishes!

75driver · 21st July 2020, 19:59

I see where the selector indicator has been rotated 90 degrees, but no selector stick!
I wonder if one of the 2 knobs below the indicator used as a rotary selector?

Edit.....cancel that, I was looking at one of the photos from a poor angle.

jeez looks a beast

That is very well done!
The more I look over the pictures the more I see.
It's a very comprehensive body kit. I like the venting on the wings and even the bonnet.
Excellent!

Agree. Very nice. I like the shiny macho exhausts and the body kit is very tidy as well. Have to go and detail mine a bit more!

It certainly is a fantastic bit of work. The console has been on my 'if I ever get time' list for years, along with custom door builds lol. I have always wanted to add more of an angle to the vertical central section of the console, which I think with this particular console could be done. (move the heated seat switch panel further down, and rotate the stereo and ATC about 30-45 degrees anti clockwise and mould it all in - but that is my desire if I have time lol).

What has always held me back is the gear shift and the handbrake (not being able to weld holds my plan back). I reckon the shift shaft could be cut, along with its mount tube, then the handbrake moved slightly. I think the shift and the hand brake lever, if it hasnt been fitted with an electronic item from a Passat or similar, are below the walnut 'ash tray' covers? A bit awkward perhaps, but certainly workable.
