My idea is flattening out the dash where the air vent is in the middle BUT creating something to get air out still. I have the halo 9 installed so I’m expecting a look similar to this with the leather and vent area bit flattened https://www.carsguide.com.au/car-rev...oad-test-44643 OR JUST google Mercedes A Class interior from 2016. Extra ideas are possibly getting the centre console on full leather or gloss black similar to the gr supra and a decent armrest because I just have a hole for cups right now.

Please do list other ideas as well!
I want to keep this car for a good time, so keeping it looking more updated would be amazing.



I actually like the interior but then again, I was a teenager during the 90s cars that we all know and love so I've never minded it (except in american cars where everything looked like bulbous plastics). It's a KISS type approach I can appreciate.

If you're going for minimalism... yeah, a car like the Model 3 has it in spades but it's missing all of the fun that makes the 86 a driving focused car.



The only wacky interior mods I've seen in the 86 have been starry night headliners and alcantara wrapped everything lol. I hope you end up just making what you want!
