Question: Steering Wheel Crest

Folks:

I've been searching for a while to find an answer to this question, but can't find it anywhere. Does anyone know whether or not it is possible to change the gold Porsche crest on a steering wheel to a silver crest? Do you have to change the airbag unit, or is it possible to change the crest itself. I've got a black, thicker steering wheel with a grey/silver contrasting thread on the leather cover of the airbag, so it would be much easier to change just the crest. Any ideas?

Also, that leaves the issue of the very small gold Porsche crest on the front of the shifter. Anything that can be done there in terms of changing it? I actually love the look of the turbo shifter, but can you order one without the "turbo" logo on the front (or can the logo itself be changed to something else - say - "C4S"?)

Thanks

agree with Hani. it can be done, but in order to make it look right just buy a new airbag. it's also not a good idea having a crest flying towards u if an accdient occurs.
