Wow! hmmm this just goes to show you the wide range of "taste" in the Corvette World!
For me the C6 Interior is the one major thing HOLDING ME BACK! I love the way my C5 interior looks....
Jet fighter...smooth, sexy, with lines. Not a big fan of the "bubble" as I call it when you sit in the C6.
Reminds me too much of the old C4 "crash pads" on the passenger side. The C5's "oh shi&" handle on
the dash just breaks up the bubbleness and add's flare. Just my opinion though...

Here's mine...
Started out as a standard, all-black Z06 interior. Turned it into a half black, half tan, full quality re-do. I didn't want to do anything to make it look "unstock"; I just wanted more quality and less black.
It now features:
-Vette Essentials door pulls and steering wheel;
-Carskinz center console lid, ebrake handle, and shift ****;
-Corvette Motorsports seats and boots;
-Lloyds Mats w/ logo.
Here's the before-and-after:

I'm impressed! It looks like a modded C5 interior blows the doors off the C6 anyday! I've always liked the quality of the C6 interiors, but not necessarily the layout. The passenger side grab handle deletion on the C6 was definately a step back in the style department. The C6 reminds me too much of the 94-04 Mustang interior.

[QUOTE=Choreo;1570047297]Here are a couple pics of my VE Carbon-Fiber Leather and Suede interior at different stages. I have recently added some more pieces, but no pics yet.
That is just amazing!

I used a trick where I wrapped the top right radio bezel clip in electrical tape. This allowed the clip to hold tighter and got rid of my bezel gap.
It's one of the "best kept secrets" in the world of $2 Corvette fixes!
