I just thought of something creative for you to do. I would get a three spoke woodgrain steering wheel, doesn't matter the color, and paint it the same color as the exterior/interior wood trim. You could even use the same bag you currently have.

I have an extra wheel laying around in the for sale section: cough, cough

would be very cool, i actually thought about it but the problem is spraying kandy on such a small surface and 360 degrees....kandy is like tint so if you dont overlap perfectly it will look bad.

no no, not done by anymeans I mean i can finally drive it, i havent since last september, dislocated and fractured my shoulder on a dirtbike. Right before that i tore the car apart to do the valve seals...while in the sling i realized hell with it i'm gonna paint it, slam it and put some wheels on it. Well turned out ,i decided to also do the deizen bushings, new steering rack, p/s line, send the cluster/climate/radio out to Lextech and get a 3 spoke wheel.
So, i'm done with that...on to the next thing...looking at double din navi unit right now and over the winter NA-T with assistance from QuickGS300
I'm sure i wont be done after that either

MDSC: Your car came out looking great inside & out. Job well done!!!!! Why not run some wider tires all around, those sizes look off to me considering I was running 295s (R) and 255s (F) on my sc3?

That's not going to work with the wheels offset unless he pulls the fenders.

I agree with everyone else, loved the way it turned out. Is the paint Black Cherry?
