Sweet Manny. Be sure and post up a pict when you get it installed.

Thanks for the advice Aspendog. Now I have the console cover, SRT8 seats coming along with JBA headers and hi-flo cats. It's a good time for the Chrysler

I have been comfortably using a 22 Elite leather console cover for almost 2 years now (self install) without a single issue. Just upgraded to a 'C' this weekend and the leather console will be my first mod.

Sorry to be so long getting back on this.
I used the Edashkit Real California Walnut (extra cost) kit with about 82 pieces.
It is not a perfect colour match for the factory wood.
The fit and finish is excellent but not perfect.
Also they didn't send enough 3M primer for the textured plastic areas, and they didn't send enough alcohol wipes. I bought a pack of 50 wipes and used more than half of them.
I would generally recommend it, although I have not compared with others.
What I would say, however, and stand back I'm going to shout it out,

IT TOTALLY TRANSFORMS YOUR CAR.

From Bentley outside I've gone to Bentley inside.
(Actually to be honest it's quite naff compared to a Bentley or many wood-trimmed cars, but it's 100 times better than standard.)

I had to paint round the edges of some of the pieces where they didn't fully cover the trim panel. Especially the radio console. I took that piece out afterward and painted the edges of it with Humbrol 85 "Coal Black".

They console cover is easy. You have three options

Do it your self: Total cost $70.00

The send you the cover with padding for 55.00 plus 15.00 shipping.

Professional Install Option. Total Cost: $120.00

Send them your console and pay them to install it. 55.00 for console and padding. 35.00 for installation. Plus 30.00 shipping (You pay shipping both ways) turn around time with shipping about 2 weeks. You will be with out a console for two weeks

Core Program. Total Cost $120.00

You pay for a console cover that is already professionally wrapped, plus deposit and shipping. When that arrives, you use the same box and send your old one back. console and padding $55.00. 35.00 for installation. Plus 30.00 shipping Turn around time 1 week.

Is it worth it paying an extra $50.00 to have them install it. That is going to depend on you. They did a fantastic job and I know for a fact, there is no way I would have been to get to look that good.

Thanks, i had to load your photos into Irfan viewer, then do a horizontal flip to get an idea what it would look like on my car...

BTW, is "naff" good or bad? I dont have any friends from Scotland to ask, and we don't use that word here in Brooklyn.
Thanks...
