yeah same! the interior is the main thing for me and since i have to look at the gauge (although i dont do it very often lol) i might aswel sort out the looks. removable 7" tablet in the dash and a custom centre console/arm rest should be coming soon after my alloys and tyres. no rush though. btw i love that black celi you have. those alloys really set it off -------------------- "whoever said progress was a slow process... was probably talking about me" |

Today I stopped by Toyota on the way home to pick up the gaskets I ordered for the throttle body and the IAC, and got a new rubber grommet for the PCV valve while I was there.
It's amazing the way little things like the pcv fit so much better when the little piece of rubber does not say Taiwan on it. -------------------- Bust a Deal; Face the Wheel.

May as well just get the Kappa's for a couple dollars more...
Today I learned that all the flat and semi gloss paint in the engine bay and under the hood polishes up to a nice lustrous high gloss with only pretty minor hand work. It looks really good having the top of the car and the most visible parts of the engine bay and the bottom of the hood all glossy.
