I know what you mean..

I don't think I like chrome trunk bars anymore.. and definitely don't like the light output of LED tails.. (but I already have the 01+ tails)

but I still kinda want one of those flashy Garson shifters with the wood/black leather/ and hella swovarskisarfejowif crystals in it.

Listen all, they are not perfect yet by any stretch of the imagination! I honestly was amazed when I saw just how cheap looking the Belleza, JP ones were in real life. Plus with an already sueded interior I knew I could better the idea. Not knocking what any of you had said, but give it a chance they'll turn out good. I am a perfectionist.

Funny how everyone all of a sudden are experts around here.

Josh, props again for making your own custom curtains. I know they didn't come out perfect on the first try but I know you are no where near finalizing them yet.

Yet, if you aren't satisfied with the final product I'm willing to trade you my Bellezas for your Supra TT's

I'll have an answer for ya in a week or two. I decided to hold off on the rears until we got the template right for the fronts. No reason to redo two sets of curtains multiple times ya know. Just got neck pillows in though. They look spot on IMO. Completely one off's....may post some pics. Car show out here on the 21st of this month, so should have some shots from that hopefully.

That was my fear, and I love having my arm out the window.

By the way, props on thinking outside the packaged and shipped box, I am all about one offs
