Cheers guys,
Alot of people have asked me why didnt i doo the glovebox etc.. Basically because IMO it would be overkill and would spoil the look, i also think it would not stay nice as the glovebox gets touched alot and may not stay in nice condition.
The group N cars dont have these parts flocked.. so mine will stay as it is for now.
Its not fully complete yet.. just waiting on my replacement ACT and EGT gauges and then the last of the wiring can be done and the steering cowlings put back on.
Glad you all seem to like it.. I will post proper pics once shes complete
Anything you guys dont like or future ides that you think may work well or complement the interior?

The centre sections are not available in carbon, only the fake rubbish stuff. 
This was my original idea but then i decided to go satin/matt black instead.
Lol @ SSS, Might get a trunk monkey
Stack dash would be damm cool but i think id rather spend £1200 on tuning/performance rather than a stack. If i had the dollar to go stack then i wouldnt need the Defis
How else could i continue the WRC theme throughout IYO?
I will be gettin a harness bar and putting my harnesses back in, i would like to find a carbon rear seat delete panel too but cant find one of those either lol.
Im trying to keep her a "race car ispired" road car than a half hearted race car. If i fully stripped it, it would lose alot more than i would be to gain.
Keep the ideas and comments coming chaps.. cheers again

Not sure what seats you have but deep bucket seats with the harness slots always set the rally theme.
I know you have done your steering wheel but the suede momo/ sparco ones will go with the dash a treat
How much is a second hand stack?
This gives you a idea

Okay guys well here she is,
Absolutely appaling pics but you get the idea. Wideband needs pluging back into the laptop to recaliberate it as its been unplugged for so long.
Also a few of the car as she is now Need another day with Dave 68 so he can work his camera magic again
Enjoy..
