Avery
Meet Avery Colburn, the mastermind behind one of our most popular products, the Door E-Cubby. With a lifelong passion for flying inherited from his balloon pilot parents, Avery’s journey into the skies led him to discover the versatile world of paramotors. In 2020, he made the switch, trading in his supercharged Civic for a 2008 Element that could seamlessly accommodate his airborne adventures.
A full-time electronics installer for both automobiles and mobile homes, Avery specializes in a spectrum of enhancements. From car alarms to cutting-edge sound systems, remote starts, and power systems, including solar installations, Avery’s expertise extends across the automotive and mobile living landscapes.
Drawing on a decade of experience in 3D printing and fueled by a desire to unlock the full potential of his Element, Avery embarked on a mission. Leveraging his skills in car electronics installation, he began tinkering and crafting upgrades and modifications for his beloved E.
Avery’s ingenuity extends beyond the Door E-Cubby. He has designed and built a repertoire of custom lighting features for the Element, showcasing his commitment to enhancing every aspect of the driving experience. From transforming fog light switches to turning side markers into turn signals, creating a service light for under the hood, to adding puddle lights – Avery’s contributions elevate the Element’s functionality and aesthetics.
His dedication to innovation and meticulous craftsmanship is evident in each product he develops. Avery Colburn continues to push boundaries, offering Element DIY Designs a valuable partnership that brings cutting-edge enhancements to the Honda Element community. As he soars in the skies and navigates the roads, Avery’s passion for creating seamless and personalized driving experiences shines through in every upgrade and modification he brings to life.
Honda Element Center Stack (Center Assembly Panels)
Restore. Reinforce. Redefine Your Element’s Cockpit.
Upgrade your Element’s cockpit with our versatile Center Stack Trim Piece — also known as the center control panel or center panel assembly. As the focal point of your vehicle’s interior, this piece not only enhances the look of your dashboard but also endures the rigors of daily use.
If your center stack is showing signs of wear — faded paint, scratches, or cracks (especially common in 2007+ models) — Element DIY offers the perfect solutions to revitalize your ride.
Customization & Refinishing Options
Bring new life to your dash with your choice of refinishing and texture options:
- OEM gray color match – for a clean, factory look
- Raptor-liner coatings – available in black or custom colors for added durability and a rugged aesthetic
Note: Custom colors are available only with Raptor-lined finishes.
We also offer vinyl wrap options in a variety of colors and patterns for a personalized style upgrade. For the DIY crowd, downloadable wrap templates are available for those equipped with their own vinyl cutters at home.
***Note*** Base price is for "As Is." "As Is" pieces may show signs of normal wear and tear including but not limited to to scuffs, discoloration, fading, rust, scratches, dings, dents, stains, etc. No returns on used parts.
Fitment Details
All center stacks available in this listing are sourced from 2003–2006 Honda Elements.
These early-generation panels are stronger, more durable, and longer-lasting than later versions — and with our custom 3D-printed SRS light bracket, they can be modified to fit 2007–2011 models seamlessly.
Note: Black color matching for 2007–2011 models is not available, except when choosing a Raptor-lined finish option.
Model Compatibility & Installation Notes
It’s important to understand the differences between these generations:
- 2003–2006 models – Sturdier, longer-lasting, and more cost-effective.
- 2007–2011 models – Fit the same opening but require an SRS light mount for proper installation.
That’s where our custom 3D-printed SRS light bracket comes in. This snap-in solution allows you to use the more robust early-year dash panels without sacrificing functionality or safety features.
Raptor-Lined for Durability
Every refurbished Element DIY center stack is professionally sourced and refinished in our workshop. We restore used pieces with high-quality 2K Raptor-liner bed lining, providing a tough, UV-resistant coating that looks great and stands up to everyday wear.
Each unit is hand-finished for lasting protection and a modern, textured appearance — the perfect balance between OEM refinement and custom ruggedness.
Compatible with all 2003–2006 Honda Elements, and adaptable for 2007–2011 models using our snap-in SRS light mod bracket.
