Default alcantara interior & mgw shifter done

i finally finished my alcantara interior and added the mgw shifter & lower box. i know most members have already added the mgw shifter and lower box but if you haven't, you should. quick and easy install with help of the install videos on mgw's site and man is this shifter good, crisp short shifts and no more getting locked out of third. as for the interior i wanted to keep the stock look having the same pieces done in alcantara as the 2012 centennial editions so i bought a couple of oem alcantara pieces (shift ****, shift boot, ebrake handle, ebrake boot, and steering wheel) and had the stitching redone in titanium grey to match my other stitching. I then had the same upholstery shop make the other pieces, adding the radio face plate and key holders in both doors.

mgw shift kit with lower billet box


mgw vs stock


now all my completed interior

That looks fantastic! I especially like the center console and radio surround.

Looks great. Thanks for the pics.

I still have my OEM shifter. It is nice to get positive reports and hear how pleased other ZR1 owners are after they moved to the MGW shifter. I might just do that some day.

I love my 2012 CE oem alcantara interior. I just hope it wears well over time.

Yes I am, I'm going to stop by napa tonight to pick up a couple of washers. Thanks for posting the question, I had never heard of the anti venom mod.
