This thread is started in homage to the design of the modern era waterfall (ski-slope) centre console. Swooping away from the driver and beyond the windscreen. It creates perspective, distance and space within the confines of a small cabin. In my opinion this element is one of the most important aesthetic and emotional features of the cockpit space.
The end of the Bonnet seemingly miles away, the waterfall carrying the dreams and promises of the V8/V12 engine hidden beneath.

Show us the view over your waterfall please...

(We can also study the materials/finishes used and what new variants we can come up with... smile )

I knew it Willy.
This lot,they don't known their aesthetic from their anaesthetic .
Not like you and me.
We appreciate the finer points of design.
Now,if you had titled your topic " Show us your BR Mods ", you would have been inundated with pics,comments,a positive cornucopia of information.

Trust you to lower the tone.

Watching, smiling, as the double entendra takes shape, loving the replies, more Waterfalls please guys!
Has anyone made their own finishes?
Yes you're quite right trying to steer a non BR feed smile

This pic is from my 1991 Virage,just to show how the dash has evolved.
In some ways my old Virage just felt more like an Aston should feel,the deep rich smell of the leather was truly intoxicating and the abundance of beautifully crafted woodwork exuded class and exclusivity.

But,as I am an old tosser,often inebriated,with a tendency to dribble,my opinion is totally worthless.smile
