Default got my wheel back from the trimmers. Opinions?

A guy who makes stageware for me, also does a bit of car interior work too...

so i sent him my wheel,

Cost..... Nothing, he did it for free,

Done in vinyl, but its awsome, goning to paint the metal part at some point,

i was inspired by the red wheel that came in the rs200

I think it looks good but should have been a matt red instead of shiny red

I'd like to get mine re-done but I have a different material/colour in mind.
Anyone else got any pics of their refurbed steering wheels?

Should have been leather instead of Vinyl... and black instead of red, and mat instead of shiney.

Other than that. spot on

I wouldnt fancy sweaty palms with that!

Looks like a decent job but the total opposite for my taste.

Id have gone with the above, leather, black and matt. But its certainly different and unique and if you like it then fair play.
