Not doing that mistake again, I drilled a hole for something from the firewall of my Miata to the interior, and my feet always wanted to catch fire because I didn't seal it properly LOL!

Man ive been busy and havent been able to do much but i was able to get this done. got some pearl wrap that was really close to the oem starfire pearl. im planning on making my own tables and i really like the white tables VIPdout has so i tried it on my center console to see what it may look like.

let me know what you guys think. i open to all comments, compliments, likers, and hater-ers in this hater-ation world we live in

Do you like it? It's kinda hard to get a feel for what it really looks like from the camera angle. Maybe take a shot from outside the car looking in the drivers door. One thing I don't like is how the stock wood grain always looks so beat up no matter how much I clean it... I wonder if there is some way to buff it so it has more of a luster than a cloudy scratched look.

actually im doing hardwood floor mats that match the door handle.

the only pearl white will be the center console and tables.

heres a pic yesterday i took with the door open



door closed with window down



i believe it may be too much white if i do the trim on the door. but well see after i actually install the tables.

went out of town for SlammedEnuff's car wash and to hang out and the night i got to memphis my battery finally decides to leak on me on the top. smelled like rotting eggs just in case some of you didn't know what that smell can be.

took it to autozone and replaced it with a Redtop Optima.




after that night got some coverage shots from the car wash.
