Very nice steering wheel, Alon.

I was actually at Ernesto's house last Saturday, and he showed me the wheel, and explained how your girlfriend contacted him about selling her the wheel.

The wheel retails for like $900 or so, but I got it from ernesto for less than half that.

I am considering the airbag, but I am not sure yet, funds are real tight right now.

Thanks for the compliments.

The engine was painted with a ford blue, which came out as a great color blue.

I noticed something...

Why did you paint your burlwood silver with a black stripe? Or is it just vinyl? But I know how you like to paint things.....

You ought to go with a custom dyed black bird's eye maple like the E55 cars did...now THAT would be schweeeet. It'd also go with the "black" theme you got going already....

Ok, I see what you did....

You put some carbon fiber looking stripe over your silver "aluminum" stuff. Pretty creative...

Silver sign vinyl, its removable, sot he wood is still ok and hasn;t been painted. my center console wood was already screwed, so by covering it, I save the expense of replacing it, and I get a nice sporty look to it.

I'm pleased witht he results, its different.

Later I'll be having all the wood redone in blue carbon fiber. to go with my whole lovin blue thing.
