So- stress….
So what to do?

Me I do anything else…lol, really though I needed a break from all that is going on so I deside to do some arts and crafts time…
Got 4th gen console-used Auto…?
1. Its all I had
2. Just to be different

4th Gen top console-Auto Style, Basically what I started with.



Removed the Trans Control-section, mapped it out- to make a switch location (window)



Made a Plexi glass piece to use for mounting




Then with a fine brush- painted on a lil bandit guy- so that the blue LED’s will Illuminate threw…



Flash makes pics look bad- but you get the ideal- painted gold and assemble





Test fit- console top Jet Balck and Cleared


Remove cross bars and insert boot


This is what it would look like….

Had I only been able t leave it alone….but I cant…want more?

Desides to change the layout- want shifter up front and to pull console back and up- for a more dramatic flow.
Cut out remaining from mounts:

Make a template-ABS Plastic- cut to fit the gap and clean the console


Plastic Weld- and smoothed it out




Old trick…Melted it down- fill it in and plast it out….ohhhh

Also note- added top bar across

Now I am not the best airbrush in the world and I sure don’t like lil things…..but lets have some fun



Spectrum White-base, Charcol n jet blacks outline, shadow n small details-Metalic Gold on top!-
Jet black on top (center of console out)-two shots of clear…could of did another, but figured not to incase I want to change it later-



Later today ill post pic of it in car
