I'm thinking of using black rather than the grey as it would probably not match with my chair's grey..

Update:

Finally got the right dimensions, fixed the problem and got the chair partially mounted:



Next:

-Finish mounting the back of the chair
-Maybe look into memory issue (only works on 2/5 motors)
-Order cup holders and mount
-Find second armrest for the chair
-Upholster the base with 1/4-1/2" foam + black microfiber stuff.
