Rear bags by UAS and some Dorbritz Designs D-cups, both hand delivered at SoWo by the guys at Bag Riders.

True, I just feel like e30s don't have enough hiding spots/places to put things. that's why I will eventually get an e36/e46 rear section with armrest/cup holders and modify that in. It's been done before quite cleanly. So I wanna try.

I dont really keep anything in my car, so storage isnt a big deal for me. sunglasses and change in the pocket in front of the shifter. random dmv shit in the door pocket. thats about all I got lol. I think I only used that pocket I replaced once becuase I had a passenger in the car and needed a place to leave a cigar hahaha

Are you going to try to replicate the grain at all or just leave it smooth?

Im not sure yet. Thats one of the reasons I havent painted it yet. I was thinking about making the grain so it would be perfect. But then Id have to order a different paint than the one I have. not that its a big deal or anything. the paint I have is a perfect match to the flat parts in the console (ashtray lids and shit), but I dont think it will lay thick enough to get the grain going properly. its supposed to monsoon all week, so I might not even get a chance to work with it until after SoWo

Boooooo! Update faster please.
Surprised you didn't keep that cubby, instead of cutting the whole bottom out, measure and cut just enuf for the remote. I use that little cubby all the time.

E30's are a dime a dOzen at picknpull, atleast here in ca. You could always get another rear section and try both

Because I wanted the controller to be completely molded in. If I did that, the bottom would just be straight across and not look too good imo. thats why I rounded the edges and made the corners identicle to the top. when its all said and done, id like it to look as oem as possible. plus, i never used that pocket. I could go without that entire section of the center console, its just taking up space lol

Yep, so I would expect another update in about 3-4 months
