A few weeks ago I noticed a member posted a pic showing his regular black stock interior but it had red piping running along his radio bezel. I thought about it for awhile and decided to have the local upholstery guy make some(he kinda went overboard and made me about 4 feet too much) for me. I always had a thing about the gaps around the bezel and the rest of the console. After installing the piping I'm pretty pleased with the look.
Rick, you did a heck of a job with the flag. My only concern about piping, which is why I didn't use the extra(for the traction control panel) I got from Redline, is the fit. How does it stay in place, and is the fit consistent thru the entire run? How about tight curves/corners??

Good questions, I had the piping made with 1.5 wide "flashing" to stick in between the bezel and dash. I also trimmed the flashing in the corners so it fold around them better. I cut slots into the flashing so I could stick all the bezel tabs through the slots which secure the bezel/piping to the dash, so it can't be pulled loose or fall out. I hope I answered your questions.
