DIY: Floating Console Modification

This is a fantastic thread and set of instructions @kitkat, thank you!

I now need to buy a 3D printer and print the finishing piece in red to match my red leather. If that doesn't look quite right, then covering it with black alcantara might work well, too.
Honestly, painting it red would be far more likely to produce good results. Painting it would allow for covering layer lines and smoothing it out in general. Plus then the can match the red and put a high gloss or satin clear on it
 
A thumbs up from me on the aesthetic. I probably won't do it due to time and competence, but I do like it stylistically.

Just use a 3D printing service closer to you or even search Facebook marketplace for someone to print you parts from their home. I see those all the time, and then sand/paint.
 
This is next level weight saving
You have a very cool idea. Looks awesome!
This would look incredible on your setup. I had an Evora for 5 years and had this custom made 6 months before I sold it with just over 2000 miles on it. Just received my 2024 nimbus grey Emira with auto after 2 years and 10 months so I have no use for it any longer. Willing to sell it if interested. Here’s a description.
LOTUS Custom carbon fiber SHIFT KNOB from MANSORY in Germany. Ordered a new shift knob from Lotus -$110. Then shipped to Mansory in Germany to be carbon fibered. Took 90 days to receive back from them. Carbon knob has maybe 100 miles of use. Basically brand new perfect condition. The workmanship
is phenomenal. My cost with all shipping was just over $500. and that was 5 yrs ago.
I am willing to sell it for $350.
if interested.
Leave a comment or email me at [email protected] and I
will get back to you.
THIS IS NOT EBAY JUNK!

Thank you, much appreciated. Was not being disrespectful. Just did not know. Will change this this evening. Again, thanks for the help.
Tried to list on marketplace but it would not allow me to. Would you have any idea why? Not having much luck.
