WTB plastic blank for center console

I'm looking for the plastic blank piece that goes next to the ebrake. It would be nice if it was tan, but I'm looking for one to use for some testing and fitment. If it's not tan, next preferred would be black, but would consider other colors if there's nothing else.

Thanks!

What if it was tan but then was painted black?

I'd probably take it. What type of paint did you use? Brake cleaner takes off paint pretty well :)

Yes, tan as in the peanut butter color from the 90-91 model years. Yeah if you don't mind grabbing one, I'd greatly appreciate it!

Does it have any other interior pieces in decent shape? Finding that color tan is VERY difficult. Is a MT by any chance? I'm also looking for the shifter surround piece.

Sorry, I've been actively searching the yards in California to no avail. Tan seems to be the least common color. I'll keep looking if you want.

Logan found some. I appreciate you looking though! If you happen to run across a MT shifter surround in the 90-91 tan color, I'd definitely be interested in that.

Yeah, the tan color is definitely one of the least common colors.

Thanks!

Josh, it's funny you were looking for one of these. I have a dark grey center console but that blank i had was tan. had it like that for a year or 2 and when i got my boost controller in the mail, i drilled a big hole in it for the MBC.

That obviously had no meaning but i found it kind of humorous.

Anyways Tan seems to be a popular color here, is there anything else you're looking for?

You might consider having an upholstery shop make you a shifter boot. They should have plenty of samples from the hide of the rare naugha that you can match the color to. I had one done and absolutely love it compared to the stock one. I always hated that stock rubber boot.

As mentioned, I'm looking for MT shifter surround plate. I can't think of anything else right now. In the future I may want to try and find some tan dash material....but I'm not sure if that project will ever materialize.

I do have a custom leather boot, but since the AT shifter surround is much larger, I don't have anything to attach the lower part of the boot to. If I can't find anything, I've got an idea to have something made that will probably work....but it will likely involve CNC machining and a bit of money :)

Yeah, I'll have to call....I've just been too busy lately to really search. Plus with interior parts I tend to like people to look at them first or get a picture so I know the condition.

not to be a nay sayer, but i've had terrible luck confirming color on parts I've looked for. I probably called 10 or 15 places for the driver's side mirror when i broke it, and all they would ever say was "blue" There's about 8 different blues/teals across the 1st gen years, and 3 in my year alone. If I asked for color code they would opt not to provide it. So Josh, I feel your pain on the harder to come by colors.

Still looking for one of these blank pieces. Would prefer tan, but at this point, I would like to have something so I can mock up the switches.

Thanks

At this point, I don't care, and black will work if you're interested/willing to sell it. Shoot me a PM if you are and how much you'd like for it.

Thanks!
