removing the steering wheel is easy. There is only one allen bolt that holds it on. There is a hole on the bottom part of the steering wheel plastic piece. Just unscrwe that allen bolt and pull the steering wheel of. Very easy.

I did mine, and it really changes the look of the interior. Looks much better IMHO.

yeah it will be a very easy fix, but it most likely will chip over time...

Yep, not a close up, but you get the idea.



If you want a better one let me know.

Also, do you know how to take out the transmission housing, b-pillars, and the pillars in the very back to paint them as well?

Excellent job. I've always loved your car :: cough Jealousy cough::

I'd love to stealth one of those new Black MR's. Lucky me December is fast approaching so the dream is becoming a reality.

Once again great work.
