I like the Idea that this Post is going. I plan to only have a hardtop, and for days when im caught in a sprinkle without it,i will have a "Bikini Top" like some Jeep Wranglers have to go between the roll bar and Windshield. and i am looking at a suede racing seat and i will have the rear seat recovered to match. Instead of carpet i will coat the whole interior with Lizard Skin ( http://www.lizardskin.com/ ) and put a coat of cheap, smooth bedliner paint on over that for durability. I think i will be going with the california Style dash and Center console Delete i will make my own cover so i can keep the heater and defrost (i live In Arkansas) But this will be mostly a street going Racer....

That sounds cool! I had thought about going rugless, but after reading about heat and road noise I think I'm going to cover it all up.

with Lizard Skin, youll never have to worry about heat. they have two different materials. One for Sound, One for heat, and both can be applied together! i was gonna put sound all over the entire Interior and the heat on the Firewall and Tranny Hump.

Yeah. I'm worried about my tranny hump. We'll see. I have no money to pimp anything out at the moment so it will be a rolling jalopy for a bit. But I did clean up and seal the whole interior, trunk and cowl with master series. So. I've got that going for me.
