Interesting project but I'd through those sloted and drilled rotors away if you plan on driving it on the street. Under normal driving conditions they will crack and cause other issues. If you want some more ideas here's a thread you might want to look at.

They need a little work around the seam of the grey carpet on the back wall. It needs to be cleaned up a bit too. I just got the car a couple months ago and it is as it came on some stuff. But the seats are definitely different. The console was made from two gn's, and the back seats are original buckets as well but i need to get the headrests embroidered.

Flip that console around, you need the cupholders up front.

Put a lock on the console door so nobody in the back seat steals your change.

I like the concept of the interior.

Yes I'd love to have some cup holders up front. Already had a spill trying to hold onto a cup. Lol

 

[Cbring]

can't have a cup gotta have a bucket.

I've been thinking how a rear seat would look like that, glad to see some one do it. Nice work!!!

 

[ILikeSix]

Great project, with a list of upgrades like that just in the last 2 months, you gotta be putting in 4 hours a day!

You said it came with the rear buckets?

At least 20 hours a week. Wife is loving all the time I spend on the car. I've got alot of buddies that like to help as well. We all hang out in the garage and drink beer and get work done. We've done about everything we can to our sportbikes(previous and present) so we are now doing cars.
