the blue is almost getting old to me too.. but im afraid if i change, the same will happen in red (or whatever) also... maybe i should just stick with white and just change the color of my gauge needles. i dunno.

Yeah I checked out wheelskins.com b4, but I was looking 4 maybe someone that customizes it so the wood and leather is actually the wheel itself. Thats for the help though.....

I know it is lame to list all this stuff without pics but here are my recent (and soon to be) interior mods:

- All 6 hard plastic A,B,C pillars were replaced with fuzzy I30 pillars.
- Installed black leather tilting I30 headrests.
- I removed my plastic e-brake handle and will be installing an I30 black leather one (probably tonight).
- I removed my stock auto shifter, lowered it 3", added a half brushed aluminum, half perforated leather (to match my steering wheel) shift ****, converted to push-down-to-shift (instead of push a button) and added a black leather auto shift boot.
- Real leather black e-brake boot
- Black leather armrest cover with extra padding between the armrest and the leather.
- In-console cupholder (available only on '96 Maximas).
- Real brushed aluminum kit waiting for install (hopefully this weekend).
- Kenwood double din DVD/Navigation. (8017)
- Auto dim mirror with temperature display, compass and maplights.
- Brushed aluminum pedals with black rubber inserts.
- Added an additional stock Security red LED to the right of the steering wheel (in the dud panel location).
- Window tint including a limo windhield strip and limo on the sunroof.
- Oh, and a boost gauge and my manumatic LED display (if those count).

I'll probably take pics of everything and start a thread when I am all done.

The one interior mod I would kill for is a "PRND12" readout in my cluster. Maybe one day....

the kit i bought off ebay actually came with the window switch pieces, and the inside door handles, and the other handles that go down vertically also pieces in brushed aluminum, but since those stock pieces aren't ... um like counter-sunk (dont know how else to explain it), i figured it would look funny. On top of htat it would prolly be destroyed when people fumble for the door handle touching it too much and stuff, so i left them off.

ptatohead, thats a lot of crap

Was there any doubt that it wouldn't come out good??

I finished everything this weekend. I'll get pics up this week.
