my new two-toned steering wheel

Finally got rid of my 4-spoked steering to a two-toned 3-spoke matching the rest of the interior theme. Thanks to Edwin of Precision Porsche for the excellent painting job!






Here's a BEFORE pic.


Next up, a new parking brake assembly with the silver "Porsche" plaque to complete the look. So difficult to find a used one, so I'm gonna have to shell out almost $500 for a new one.

Looks real good. If you did the horizontal strips it would literally tie it all together.

I've been thinking about that. However, I'm quite hesitant to hack the dash by destroying the original and gluing the new ones in. If I do it the right way by taking the dash down and putting the new strips on the proper way using their clips, I'm afraid the process may introduce some dash creaks and rattles which can be very irritating. I'm giving it a really long thought though.
