This is something I've wanted to do for a while, for no real reason. I've seen a number of inquiries, but no real definitive answers so I just went after it, couldn't be that hard right. I'm very happy with how it turned out keep in mind I'm not done but it is functional and in place. I haven't quite decided if I want to change the orientation towards the driver.

I filled it with epoxy, and will skin it with carbon.

I'm already modifying my design. Should be little more stock looking.

Also the gear indicator seems effect the sport/manual option. So I plugged that back in and "stuffed" it in. Idk if I'll waste my time doing something different.

Whelp, that was a bust, I had a mount 3D printed at work. The reality wasn't nearly as pretty as my visualization.

I'll try to sand it down to get more pitch up front. It's hard to capture the shape correctly.
