More plating from Librandi's this time the front turn signal trim rings. These started out as non stick coated pie tins that we picked up at a kitchen supply that were modified to use new Wrangler turn signal housings. These gave us the recessed look to go along with the headlights. Clear lenses were chosen to go along with the clear side marker lights then amber bulbs installed to keep things legal. Next up was the console trim. These 3 pieces were machined from aluminum and then plated. A little extra time and expense was put into these pieces to compliment the shifter boot and black paint on the console top surface. I must point out though that the plating is thicker than expected. the
counterbored holes were reduced in size enough that the button head screws had to be turned down to fit. That alone shows the quality of the chrome plating. All in all the interior turned out better than we expected. Jeffrey had a vision of what he wanted and designed the dash and console and this was the end result. Everything is functional and within easy reach. A white shift knob replaced the red 8 ball to compliment the white seat stitching.
