The air bag doesn't come out if that panel as far as I can tell, but I can understand not having the clearance to reinstall them after wrapping.

Looks good, but I like the 3 panel version better, realizing that this is still a work in progress.

3 panel version is for the AT cars, 2 panel version is for the MT cars. Same as OEM.

3 panel is just for the Auto.

An upholstery shop I am working with is making that a single piece using a bracket and glueing them together. Additionally, they're sanding them down slightly so that when wrapped, it will retain its OEM dimensions.

Costing me an arm and a leg to get all the pieces I'm looking for done, but it should be worth it.

Thank you all for the support. As mentioned, these are just prototypes although most of the patterns have been finalized or are close to it. We don't like to release anything that does not fit 100% perfect. Otherwise, we just don't make it.

A few asked about pricing for the items. We're still working on determining the final price but expect the brake boot to be the same as the current WRX as they are almost identical. The shift boots should fall closer to the Miata pricing. Prices for those can be found on our website. The rest of the pieces are still being sorted through.

Other items that will be released with time:

- Knee pads to match JDM style. They will be slightly padded but clearance issues don't allow for too much. We'll probably come out with a separate add on pad for those interested in comfort over looks.

- Door speaker grills to match JDM style.
- Stitch gauge hood (as seen in previous post)
- Sun visor covers
- Steering wheel re-cover
- Door Panel padding re-cover

There are other parts we are considering that will be done down the line. For now, this is what will definitely be available.

I cannot comment on the timeline for release as we're waiting on confirmation of the matching thread from our supplier. This will ultimately be what decides release dates for these items.

As always, feel free to contact us directly for any questions/comments/etc

I'm looking forward to the gauge hood and sun visor covers.
