Great job. Did a lot of the same things to mine over winter! It's snowing here again! 2 feet in some areas.

handbrake boot and painting console

Hi,
The painted center console looks great, as does the handbrake boot. Did you buy the console or paint yours? How about that boot? Makes the center of the car look very finished. Nice!

I put one of these on a while back. Nice finishing touch.

Thanks for the feedback. The painted bits were done at my favorite body shop. The Exige seat swap is pretty straightforward. I can't comment on '05 seats compared to Probax as my originals were Probax as well. I was a bit surprised by the amount of visible area they take up in my rear view mirror.
