Default Possibly the best cheap interior mod of all time...
Our RC F's generally have a beautiful interior. In my opinion one weird weakness is the steering wheel and that big slab of silver plastic trim below the airbag. This cheap piece of carbon fiber purchased from eBay for $40 fixes that. Amazed at the quality and how much more organic it makes the interior look. Check it out.

Is this real carbon? Read the description and states 1 x 100% real carbon?

Its definitely 100% real carbon fiber. In fact the weave almost looks exactly the same as the rest of the factory carbon in our cars. I am shocked by the quality, I really believe this should have been done at the factory! It looks that good.

I can take a pic when I get back to the car but I can definitely say that no silver trim shows from the side at all.
