^^ Wow, that looks real nice. Were you going for a hyper silver look? Looks aluminum which I think is even better.

i made this/am still making it as i type, today. its a overhead console out of a chevy blazer that i made a gauge pod for and then fiberglassed the 2 together. it will be going in my project 69 galaxie. it will hold the 3 air ride gauges, the bigger switch is for the street beat rag top that i am putting on the car, the 2 outside smaller buttons will be for the driver/passenger inside the car door popper buttons and the center button will be to reveal/hide the license plate for when at shows/photoshoots

They had to be powdercoated anyway as they had tons of chips and scratches - I figured if I was doing them I may as well make them look a little different. So I chose a plain silver color instead of the hypersilver. I think they'll look good with the Lakeshore Slate color.

Bought a 7 wire, 4-gauge grounding kit. Installed it yesterday. Don't really notice much of a difference, if at all. I guess maybe throttle response is improved slightly and maybe shifting improved slightly, but it could be in my head. Definitely not worth $100+.... And I have a 1000w amp so I would see benefit from it more than most G's.
