FX4 center console mod

I never did like the looks of the rubber/vinyl console cover on my FX4, and had thought of replacing with the Lariat version.

A friend of mine has been doing seat covers for motorcycles recently and I asked him to look into doing something for my truck.

This is what he came up with...it is a covering over the existing vinyl version with the FX4 logo.



Thoughts?

I will post another with it installed when I have some daylight tomorrow.

I covered mine in fur that matched the interior.But also made one for a member with the Lariat logo I put on his headrest.
I did mine in fur because my dog likes to sit in the back with her paws on the console and with fur I dont have to worry about scratches or punctures

MINE..


HIS..

If anyone is interested in getting something like this done (or other designs) let me know - my friend is looking to do more of these.

Be honest here - what would people be willing to pay for something along these lines?
