I have received my console cover and installed it yesterday. The result was just awesome!! I think this is the single most effective way of up-grading the interior of the car. Here are pictures.





The installation was very simple and easy. The fit was perfect for my right-hand drive (or the "original") version of the car. I used an expired credit card for "tucking in" the front end. (An old CD would be too thick.) As someone pointed out, the passenger side of the front end was a bit short for the fit, but I was able to manage preventing it from hanging out from the side.

Thank you Rick for this wonderful product!!

Rick, you da man! That looks fantastic. The color match is perfect. They will erect a statue in your honor in Tokyo.

PRETTY! Hmmm, shipping to the Far East is actually faster than within the continental U.S. Amazing!

lvs2k,

You've gotta be a bit more patient, man! There were not many red/reds ordered, and all but three of those have shipped. I had 100 black/black orders, and only half have shipped because Townsend ran out of black hides for a while. The rest will ship this week. But you've gotta remember, I'm one guy doing this. When I get 30 or 40 console cover to ship, it takes me an entire evening (late into the night) to prepare them for shipping. So this takes a little time.

While reading this, I first thought you used an expired credit card to pay Rick!!!

Yes, Greg, it's real exciting to have these accessories going back to the land of the car's origin. Thanks, Morangie, for the pictures.

lecar,

I don't accept credit cards.

BTW, I'll be coming to Paris (our favorite city in the world) for a week in March with my family, and I'd love to meet you. But I recall that you're now in London.
