What did you use on the steering wheel?? Looks brand spanking new!! Did you take it off or just paint in the car?

Can anyone say cold

I LOVE cold. I want my house to be warm....but my car to be as mechanical looking as possible. Thus one of the largest reasons I rarely like beige interiors.

In that case then it looks awesome, fantastic job and it looks pretty good. Personally though I'm a sucker for wood and classic looking interiors

Interesting. You learn something new everyday!


Edit: To the OP and others with an 05+ car... Does your center grille rattle with bass?

Nope...not at all. And I like having the bass up pretty high. Maybe that was one reason for the change...
