Hey guys, I almost 4got about this thread.

So I wont be able to make anymore till early next year. . . . :w00t:
Sorry, but if you are still keen, I'll start on em next year! :thumbsup:
Hey Patrio7, I tried to make up a set for yours a while ago, I spent 2 days on it with no luck in the end. The sill is 2 narrow for our bender at work.
The metal just kept on poppin out. Sorry dude!

What about the gear shift surround?
I reckon the brushed look would look pretty sweet there if it was done properly. :coolpimp:

auto though if you wanted to get fancy could do the area next to the hand brake and knock in a hole or two to suit drinks [ something the size of a pringles can to allow for either coke cans up to large HJ's cups. not sure what could be used as an insert though [ or could do a "double ring" bracket (brake level and say 5cm below) to brace the drink like that ]

Have you seen the scuffs on a VL, do you think these could be replicated?
I've spoken to a few people that weren't too confident on doing it. But I'm getting pretty keen on doing mine, as the stock vl ones aren't that good and they don't hold the carpet in place. I'd want just plain metal, you wouldn't even have to polish it, I'd take care of that. Anyway, let me know if you can or can't. I'll pay generously, and depending on the quality of the work I'm sure I could convince alot of people to join in.

Hey patrio, sounds interesting, the drink holder idea.
Also you could replace the trim inserts in the doors for stainless? ? ?
Would look different. Suck if the sun hit it though. . . . :w00t:
Bex, you're talking bout the plastic ones hey?
I dunno if I could do something that flash with the gear we have at work.
We are government funded after all . . . . . :embarrass
But as I said it guna have to wait till after nu year cause I get to spend the next month on an Army base, :bop: woo hoo yay for me. . . . . :bang:
