| category. -7 points there. That was a no brainer though - I didn't vacuum out the car. The door panels/armrests were -5 points as well - the katskinz leather panels aren't bonded well on those panels and they look rough. Another -4 for the trim panels: noted as "scratched and gouged panels". -3 for the seats as the driver's seat is a little worn on the bolster. For the radio category, there weren't any points deducted. I have thought about a different design for the center panel where the main screen is located - it would be a bit more aesthetically pleasing as well as somewhat more functional. I have been considering to go to a completely digital gauge cluster using a widescreen display, building my own gauge cluster housing and only having a mechanical gauge for the fuel level and oil pressure (and not using the OE gauges). I had a ton of stuff in the car with me that I pulled out and thought they already judged the car - I put it all back into the rear of the car and then they came by to judge it with all that stuff in the back. I'm sure that did't help either. I will be ready for ZCON '07 though - it will be right here in my backyard. :)
