    Nice Hans. Did you do your own upholstery? How about the padded center console? Looks good either way!

    Very nice. My major gripe about the console in my plane is the bruise that developers on my right leg after a long trip...

    I get the same bruise. I used to get it on my left leg too but i moved the door latch that was causing it. Kind of hard to remove the console now since all my wiring and fuel goes through it. I thought about using a piece of this padding. It's fireplace padding for the edges of brick hearths to keep little kids from splitting their heads open on the edges of the bricks.

    Storage space is always needed, I added two pockets left and right of the center console.

    This is what I am doing... same black wrinkle finish on side panels & instrument panel.
    I've got the same problem others have had- it posted upside down. Must be something with iPad - I've never had the problem with my PC. If I wasn't at OSH, I'd post it from the PC.

    John,

    I like the wrinkle finish. Can you share the how/what of how you accomplished the look?

    thanks - Bob
