This car keeps getting more and more customized. I have an almost continuous stream of small parts coming in to my mailbox. This thing is not that. This is bigger.

Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!!

Of course I was an idiot and thought that I could do this myself, spent a couple of hours and got absolutely no-where, so I took them to a professional shop and paid them to take care of it. I also got the center console lid done, but oddly I don’t have any good photos of that yet.

I dig it. Of course blue is my favorite color so i may be biased.

Looks really good. Between you, me, and K-roll Oppo has a lot of improved door cards at the moment!

Kinja'd!!!

What other parts are on the way? (or soon to be)

Everything I see is just blue, inside and outside.

I love it! This should be an option on Mustangs from the factory!

It ain’t a blue Corvette, though.

Blue isn’t my favorite color, and I highly approve!

The leather interior does have leather door cards, but it’s all black. I wanted color!

The interior on any new car is just so dark. I think all cars need a splash of color inside. I won’t make everything blue, but a lot of things...

How much was that? I want to do customish interior on some of our cars but I always figured it was a lot...

Don’t get me wrong, I think it looks good. The new Audi can be utilized for inspiration. https://blog.caranddriver.com/705-hp-nogaro-edition-audi-rs6-stirs-our-wagon-lust/

Oh yeah! That is really close to where I want to be. I won’t do the seats this year, but maybe next year.

All in right at $500 for the door skins and labor. I bought the door skins from https://www.redlinegoods.com/ but there are options out there.

I’m always here for ya, my man! Anytime. Things are going well for me. I’m getting an internship at an Auto-body repair shop starting next week! I just received the the forms to fill out to be fitted for a cap and gown. Graduation is now only a few months away.  I’m getting an idea of what I’ll be doing post high school, so that’s good. Very excited for the future.

This is good. More cars need exterior color carried into the interior. Than again ore cars need an actual exterior color.... says the guy who drives a grey BMW. At least my interior isn’t BLAAAACK.

This is an improvement.

The corvette reference always threw me. I wondered if it was supposed to be a Prince “Red Corvette” reference?

An Automatic STi would seem pretty silly. Although I suppose that would give the driver a free hand to help make some massive vape clouds. I have yet to start vaping or wearing flat brim hats, it is surprising to me that driving the car doesnt automatically cause those things.

I REALLY do not want a white interior. That would get so destroyed lol. I like color contrasting interiors too. Like my red Miata seat in a blue car.

I tried, but when you have a 10k budget and want a manual trans, with RWD or AWD, your choices are limited. I could have bought a green wagon e9x, but it was 2 grand more than my car, and in Denver Co. which for me is a 4 hour drive and 2 hour flight away.

I need to get the blue trim for my GTO

I think these would look great with my black seats and blue stitching
