Got most of the interior finished up tonight, but I ran out of carpet. I need about a 20x40" section to finish behind the passenger seat. Here is what I started with, an awkward shaped piece of fiberglass:

I cut a couple thin pieces of foam to make it mostly flat

Then cut out the 2" thick piece of high density foam that really seems to absorb sound well:

Behind the seat belt you can see foam facing the other direction, there were huge empty pockets back there with some holes straight to the engine bay, I bet a lot of noise was coming from there so I filled them with foam too:

Here is the driver side carpet installed, sorry it was dark out and couldn't get a really good pic:

Nice little bunk you're building back there! Just park on a steep hill and cuddle up for the night!

Finished the carpet today, lucky Menards had the exact same carpet in stock. Here is the finished product with harness bar installed. You can the see anti sub belts mounted through the floor on the passenger side.

Cool, just let me know, I should be able to get the undertray and other stuff buttoned up soon to go for a quick drive.

I painted the console with plastidip tonight, turned out pretty good. The only thing I don't like about it is it leaves fingerprints and dirt marks really easy. Compare to how I received the car, I think it's a ton nicer.
