But got a couple of Ideas like usb for obd and couple of digital temps mabe.

I agree that it looks a bit bare but I've got to wait till the paints fully dry before I can make a mold, prob like 2 months to dry properly.

I actually don't think they're too nice. I've seen a lot of people get them really snug around the bar. But it's best to have a spare set of panels to use as a template. Guesstimate a little and once you're able to get the leg through the hole you can put some tape around it to use as a guide when you drill the holes in the panels you will be using permanently.

What is your definition of normal?

I daily my Z with a Maxis in it. Getting in and out is definitely a pain in the ass. Especially with an OEM steering wheel.

I've been looking at your seats. I love them. I sat in NOngs zero's and they seemed tiny. If I flexed my bum I could sit on top of the bolsters. Are they all the same size?

Normal I guess I mean average? Google says:

Height (inches): 69.4
Weight (pounds): 194.7
Waist circumference (inches): 39.7

That's what google told me average is but anyone 5'7" - 6' 160 - 200lbs 32-38 waist, how do those seats feel after 30-40 min of driving? I saw BH said he has to organize his boys before he sets off lol.

Buddy Club.

Ill try to take a pic when I get a chance. Im skinnier than average though.

As far as comfort its not that bad. Not as comfortable as my VIOS was but thats just my opinion. The back on the Maxis seems arched more.
