Is that what it's called when a hack messes something up, massaged?

No
 Massaged is when something is slightly modified to fit around an aftermarket radio or an add on accessory

 hacked is hacked 
 And I would like to think I'm not a hack:hick:
 I did the massaging on mine
 anyway , here are pics of the piece I have

I'm kinda leaning toward the one on the left Kitz
although I would like to try and put woodgrain on them like my car already has. You know me, always trying to be different. :hick:

I have 2 of them in great shape with wood grain. I'll send one off to you. Why didn't you say "wood grain"? I got you covered on this now.I may have the wood grain gauge panel as well.

Now I have this covered.

There you go, I thought you wanted aluminum also.

Post by: daminc on August 02, 2010, 06:04:23 PM
I didn't realize that they even made it in a woodgrain for a center console. I'd like to keep the woodgrain if I could. the aluminum is so industrial looking. plus I never saw anybody's car with it so I figured it didn't exist.
here's the inside of my car. I luv me 80s woodgrain

I would take the one with the broken tab over the scratch. It would not take much to form some Plastic Weld putty (<

When I had my 1985 Tbird it had the aluminum look and I got a fetish to swap it out for woodgrain pieces.

My two 20th's and my '86 both had woodgrain like that...... Hell, I just thought thats they way they came LOL :D

I'm pretty sure the vert also had it if I remember correctly. I guess I don't mind the aluminum in that one. Kinda makes the cars seem really different when your in them.

If I had a different color interior,I'd have used the wood grain look as well.
