Ok, so I can't leave well enough alone. Had some free time yesterday so did the following:
- Installed the 'LotusShii' Glovebox - very cool! It's designed to match the '05-'07 interiors, but not the '08 'sensusoft'. So, I plastidipped it! Basically a trial and error mix of black pdip with some white added. Got the color that matched and then put it into a Preval sprayer. Thinned 50/50 with Naptha. Did about 10 coats about 15 min apart. Let it cure for a couple weeks. Color match is PERFECT and the thinned P'dip really provides a much more professional finish. Added a matching Elise decal in silver (got on eBay).
- Installed Lowtush' double cup holder.
- Added carpet over the ribbed aluminum floor and on the side sills. Wanted to keep the aluminum 'stripe'. I'll do a separate thread on how to do that. On with velcro and 100% reversible.
- Did a custom 'mount' for my Garmin and also for an iPad mini. Leverages the RLS mount, but it's 'modular' and I can swap out the Garmin for the iPad mini at any time. I'll do a sep thread on that as well.
