Question for all boat owners.

Do you think you would ever put aftermarket throttle knobs, steering wheels, dash covers, etc on your boat like the fast and the furious? I think that would be cool...

I got me a chrome skull shift knob, it's badass. I think a billet sterring wheel would be cool too. The graphics on my boat are "fast and furious" style, but that's not why I got them.

Next I'm going to get bright green "Type R" floormats and seat covers. I was also thinking about getting the "Type R" seat belt shoulder pads and just sticking them on my tower. Oh yeah, and a crown airfreshener.

Actually I think next I'll get neon put around the rub rail above the water line. Go for the "street glow" effect, that would be cold pimpin.

MC by design does make chromed exhaust pipes, rudders, props, wheels, knobs, pylons, etc... and believe it or not they look pretty sick on some boats. i've seen a customized black X 30 with MC aftermarket parts and it looks sick. that is as far as i would go, wouldnt put ricer parts on it.

Hell yeah, straight outta fast and the furious... Laughing

Actually my friend has a Momo steering wheel on his 'bu, it matches the paint. Looks and feels way better than the stock ones. Giving it a big thumbs up.

I put just a simple black leather wrapped wheel and an aluminum thottle knob on my old 84' Nautique. I didn't like the way the stock wheel felt while driving was the reason for that swap... The knob looked cool so I got it.

The day boat companies got "rice" is the day I boycott that company!

im making a pretty riced out boat at the moment, its going to be pretty cool tho....when i was like 10 my parents got me a really old 13 foot boston whaler, a 1972 hull to be exact. they had the boatyard refinish the wood on it and put a new motor on it, a 30hp but it still hauls some ass cause its such a small boat. anyway, this summer im turning it into the coolest whaler ever, i bought a stereo for it, im thinking about putting some neons under the seats for a little more rice...hahha its gunna be sick, when im all done with it ill post some pics

and if you were wondering, this isnt the boat we ride behind....this is just a little boat i like to mess around in

I read an article on the Boston Whalers the other day, they are sick boats. I am currently restoring my first boat a circa 1965 Pride Starfire. Old clean boats have a lot class.

I originally had the cheap black plastic throttle knob on my 98 RLX but got a leather Malibu one sent over from the states with a Aussie mates on MBO. I felt like a bit of a wanker spending money on something so cosmetic, but I like it now.
