YES!

Simplicity in my eyes is key. When you look at the exotic cars that kids (and adults) drool over they may be over the top as far as the design goes, but they all have one thing in common which is everything is neat, clean and properly placed.

Some people like the guages all over for RPM, oil, egt, blinker fluid, etc. and more power to em.

Yeah, I'd like to eventually coat the pleather surfaces with suede or alcantara and the fabric with leather. As for the steering wheel, something like the Audi R8 wheel, stock looking, flat bottom, small diameter, thick. And new carpet :]

Ooo, and an aluminum shift gate, also like the R8 or a F355.

I had my interior pieces painted with the same stuff as my exterior so it matches perfectly. It has 3 layers of clear coat which is why its so shiny. No, it doesn't glare in my face however my screen does on occasion which can be annoying. There is a new screen out that is anti-glare/daylight visible bright whatever that is supposed to awesome.

The gauges were made by a company who is called Kroto, or should I say was....they are no longer in business so I have no idea where you would get them now.

Saw this interior somewhere in here, and I think it looks HOT! Exept for the Racing seats. It would look better with standard tan mr2 seats.

color matched interior accents are so early 90's ....And suede is a little to mini trucker rice...I'm fond of the black and tan leather ferrari type interior. That car with the suede and gold would look ten times better with black leather instead of suede and that bride accent crap.

Everyone has their own opinion...and thats cool.

However:

* Last time I checked Super cars still "Color Match" their interiors (lotus, ferrari, etc.).

* Alcantara (Suede) is used in almost every super car (look up F430)

* Our cars are from the 90's... So we gotta keep them looking like a 90's sports car. There's different ways to style an interior for different aspects of tuning. Either for show, daily drivers or a restoration project.
