Nice job Roger. I may do this someday if I find a handle I like enough.

LOL, I was wondering how long before someone would pick up on a couple of "hidden" items in the pictures!

That is the controller for my remote radar detector that's mounted in my grill. The gloss black surrounding (fibergalss) was custom made by Nazar and Justin at Wicked CAS when they re-did my sound system. I know the sounds when it picks up radar/laser hits so I don't really need to see it, but I also use a Valentine V1 at the same time if I'm driving very far, just to be safe (plus I like watching the arrows )!

I plan on having the same thing done to the "rubber piece" around the brake that I screwed up at some point.

Yes it is. That's the (infamous) Momo Factory Optional Steering Wheel (type B) that is/was only available in Japan. Someone in this section (Body, Interior, etc) is doing a group buy on them but people are concerned about the price ($750 I believe). BTW, my car's a Base so I didn't lose any of the buttons on the steering wheel.

Darn, that code expired on March 25th at midnight. I'll see if they have another code and post it. May be a couple of days...

Hey great job! I guess the G's brake must be pretty similar to the Z's brake?

Anyone2u - Do you mind posting up more pics of the center console? Or maybe have a gallery.

Very nice write up btw.

Thanks for the write-up. The mod looks great. I guess I may have to go this route if I can't get my hands on an OEM burnt orange ebrake handle.

Good job Anyone, how does that shifter feel, I love the momos, was the install easy, is it any longer than stock or shorter ?

Thanks a lot.
