just to keep that timer down you should at least get some velcro!!! LOL I think the white doesn't look too bad. I used to have a black car w/ white interior also. except mine kinda looked like a cow, Here are a couple pics. Everything including the seat covers are my own custom jobs. I had my mother make the seat covers from scratch,

MOOOOOOOOOOO
hahaha. That's very ricy. Personally i don't like contrasting colours inside of the cockpit. Dono, just, bleh.

Emonz-I thought about getting some velcrow to put on the turbo timer but i really don't like where it is. When the sun comes down it can't see the numbers and when its dark the red distracts my eyes.

An A Pillar? Where the hell they get that name from? lol
Don't look like an A to me!

but, Ya, it's nice to have that nice stock look, but with little additions that aren't too noticable. I really like this look:

Hmmm I want to get thet cluster pod someday too. I can't say much about the rice aspect (though I love my car and it looks good to me) but if you want to change it...buy new ones or paint it. If you paint it...PREP PREP PREP! Thats the most important part. I used actual car paint and actual car clear coat. No ****ty spray cans where the paint bubbles and chips due to ****ty prepping and ****ty paint. As for the velcro on your timer...good luck. I am not sure how the heat is where you live but the heat kills the adhesive here in Florida so the velcro just peels off. On the short shifter...let me know if you find one. I have a "short shifter" but its definitely not short! I was thinking of cutting the bitch!

the heat does affect the adhesive I am in tampa and my SAFC is vecroed up and falls if my car is parked outside but he is just velcroing it on top of the steering column it should move much at all since the weight is pressing down. my SAFC is hangingthe braket is upsidedown holding the safc so it is pulling down on the velcro and it falls but not very often like I said only when parked outside in the heat for a while
