looking good. you should go down to a material shop like lincraft or some **** and get a sheet of black leather or velour and go over the centre console and dash.

Alright so got me self some nice leather seats in now (seat covers yes im a cheap c**t), and finished painting the entire console/fuse panel/ and glove box to make her a bit easier on the eyes, i got sick of looking at the old dirty vs regular colours, now i want to paint the top half of the dash but i dont want to take everything back off lol thought about masking up inside the ute and spraying but that could turn out to be a very bad idea... haha

just need to finish off the centre console arm rest but didnt have the right paint, still looks a treat

Um...the handbrake ?

If that's not an option what about a docking station for phone/iPod etc ?

Haha, handbrake is on drivers side, and i dont mind it there gives me room to put something else.

and was thinking ipod dock but i hate my iphone i wish i could toss the piece of **** out the window

Did you use a plastic primer under the paint? Sometimes paint will chip very easily if you just paint over plastic, the cup holder idea is good, are the actual cup holders out of another vehicle? If so what?

Nah mate just gave it a clean down no chipping as of yet which is good. I gave it a good few coats.

yeah cup holders best thing ive done haha. Just go to bunnings in the pvc pipe section and grab the smallest one that fits whatever your planning on mostly putting which for me was a can of coke
