That is a broad category, seen lots of different things for different styles I would definitely forget things off that list.

Yeah, wayyy to broad. Any and all modifications are considered "cool" by at least some people...

I for one absolutely love custom fiberglass enclosures and consoles. Be that for speakers and such or just center consoles, or smoothed out dashes with designs inlayed. I think one of the coolest trucks I ever saw in a truck magazine was one with a Tiki/Hawaiian theme. I'll have to find that issue and pass it on. The truck was orange on the bottom and white on top, with tiki guys everywhere, and Hawaiian lei's. I love that style. I can't remember if it was the same one or not, but one guy had these wicker lawn chairs that swiviled around and tiki faces molded into the dash. I'm going to guess it was not a daily driver but it was really cool. If I find the articles I'll scan them and share.
