Raul G Custom Painted Steering Wheel

I decided to paint the steering wheel bezel. I used to have a CF Vinyl wrap and didn't like how it flowed with the real Carbon Fiber on the Steering Wheel. So I got an extra piece and painted it a gloss black.

Enjoy!

i'm sure you could ship it to him, shipping isn't too much, i'm sure that would fit into a USPS 3.99 anywhere in the US box....

How easy is it to take this bezel off? and since you have posted the question now i must...how much Raul. Maybe flat black instead of the gloss because i don't have all that carbon fiber rap to distract the eye.

Its fairly easy, the most important thing is making sure the back plate doesn't move when the steering wheel is off, or else can get off center. I just secure it with some tape to make sure it doesn't move.

Too many textures, but it's not bad.
