I tried... I don't have any pics because it looked ugly, and I never finished it. It was too time consuming. I could just buy one for under $100 that would look 10 times better anyway So that's what I did.

i actually used a rubberized under coating for the interior. it matches the rest of the interior better than it did from the factory.

Wow I lost count. Here are 2 links. I ran out of money at one point, so that started my craze of making my own stuff. From leds to train horns.
I will post links as to not post 30 pictures.

I know this isnt evom, I need to update my thread here.
