F8x steering wheel trim - modded
thought i'd share, as i haven't seen this done before.
i quite dislike the silver trim. It just doesn't match. couldn't find a dry-look carbon piece for the steering wheel trim (and my diy attempt at di-noc...er...let's pretend that didn't happen.) as opposed to the plastic trim on our cars, the f8x cars have a metal trim piece. After the trials and tribulations required to pull it off, i had it powder coated high gloss black to match the lci radio trim / the shadowilne trim on the door panels. just put it on tonight (on my custom steering wheel) and i'm quite happy. The trim piece, fwiw, is also covered in leather as opposed to our stock plastic ones. It's a lot nicer! |

is the entire f8x steering wheel compatible with the f3x? can we retrofit the whole thing instead of just taking the trim?
