Default Grazio Japanese Blackwood Steering Wheel Finally Installed!!

One of the toughest mods I have done to date. Expensive too. I had to have the tiptronic buttons painted black because my original ones were grey. Big props to Son at Dynamic for getting this done for me. Also had the JPI rattle kit installed. No more dash and sunroof rattles!!!

JPI, one of the vendors, sells the rattle kit. Did you get that steering wheel from zeroism on ebay?
