New steering wheel

Well, I sold my old steering wheel. It was one of the sparco's with the two toggle buttons. I got tired of them being there, and people coming up and asking "are those for the nawzzzz?" so I sold it to a friend of mine for pretty much what I had in it.

I just bought this one. Whatcha think?

Looks pretty cool. Maybe you could wrap the metal in the middle with some CF to go with your theme?

See, Idk.

With carbon fiber, its really hard to get that balance between too much and just right. If I put too much it'll look cheap and ricey, im looking for those accents without being like "damn, what isnt carbon fiber?". Its also really hard because you never see camaros with that style, so I kinda dont have any examples to go by, and would have to just try it out.

I really like it, looks 100x better than the stock one that's for sure.

I'd buy one like it myself if I wasn't so scared to lose the airbag.

My personal experience, im more afraid of HAVING an airbag than not. Couple of my friends have been nearly killed in small auto accidents due to the airbag.

Not to mention I have a racing seat with a 5-point harness, if i've come up far enough to hit that airbag, im fcuked anyway. I sit VERY close to the steering wheel, me being 5'5 + I sit close so I can feel the clutch better.

You should talk to Brian (Meissen), he did a lot of his interior in CF.. you could probably even find some of his progress threads by searching.

Yea i've seen his car. Love that center console in CF. I guess at this point im just debating what I really want as per style of the car as a whole and whats would push it over the edge into "too far".
