I refinished the interior in the challenger this week. It looks really good and I don't want to stick the ugly factory woodgrain door panel inserts back on. I'm thinking maybe I'll make some out of aluminum and paint to match the outside or leave as aluminum. I've seen some carbon fiber inserts on ebay but I'm not sure about that eaither.

What do you guys think?

I like Jamie's idea! lol
We tried to get a blue body wrap material that we though was going to match the car, but no go! It is way the wrong color blue, so instead I think the plan is to go Black and just keep it that way. Have to talk him into doing the center console though too, cause now it looks funny w/ all the other funking woodgrain gone!

Hopefully will be able to drive it out to the track and do some testing on it soon!!!
