Thank you so very much guys!

It looks like I have been missing for quite some time!

Here are a few pics of the finished console!...I thought that I had posted these months ago! I think that it turned-out sweet, and I can't wait to hear all of your comments.
The first two pics are during trial assembly, and before faux carbon was added!
If you look closely, on the upper right of the front (when installed in the vehicle) there is a USB port & Aux-in for playing music from a flash drive or ipod, and on the upper left there is a JL subwoofer level control knob.....It seems that the pics aren't very clear. Sorry...




Here is a pic of the console unit wrapped and installed in the truck. Just in case you are wondering, the center portion is a single piece of aluminum sheet-metal bent into a odd shaped tube with a welded seam. Then tabs were welded inside the open ends to attach the sides plates, which were CNC milled. The sides plates are fastened using 3M heavy-duty plastic velcro, which makes it easy to access the wiring of the head-unit.









Please respond with your comments. I really want to know what you guys think!!
