New custom console

I wanted to share a pic of my console. I never liked how the shifter looked so I decided to raise the shifter and build a console with cup holders. Built out of fiberglass and wood with a vinyl cap.

Re: New custom console

Great work. That looks factory built and works well with the interior.

Re: New custom console
