OEM centre console

I want to make my car normal again. I'm looking for a unmolested clean, centre console.

I understand that these don't cost an arm and a leg from Honda.

OK. I have cut the thin bars on mine which surround the stereo. I was thinking of repairing them and then covering the whole thing in alcantara. I'm sure my vacuum bagging equipment will allow me to press the material in nicely around all the shapes to do a decent job. However if it doesn't then a new one it will have to be. I'll let you know how it goes.

I was going to retrim the doors as well in the same.

I had the idea they were around £600?

Will be interesting to see how well you get on with this...obviously the hand brake recess is going to be tricky. Tell me more about the vacuum bagging technique?!
Sudesh posted a picture of his in alcantara which looks good.
Might have a go at my D*li one to make it look more presentable.

EDIT.

Vacuum bagging is the technique I and others use when making CF & fibreglass parts. What I will do with this is glue the material onto the console, wrap it in the vacuum film and suck out the air. This will make the material stick down to all the nooks and crannies while the glue dries.

More a precaution than anything else.

Cheers, will be good to see how you get on...
