That brown steering wheel.............

........well it's now black!


I have to say I'm pretty happy with the end result and it feels so much better than the old wheel :-

It was a 3 stage process :-

1. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/380273809085?ssP...1439.l2649
2. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/380503542461?ssP...1439.l2649
3.http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/290674732654?var...1439.l2649

It wasn't until step 3 that I got it looking as good as I wanted it to be. Got - 2017 SDV8 Autobiography in Loire Blue

Did you do it in situ or remove. You have me thinking now as I was thinking of a two tone wheel sand and black Thumbs Up Present :2008 TDV8 HSE

You definitely can't do it in situ, way too messy for that!

If you want my old wheel to use while you do yours, let me know Got - 2017 SDV8 Autobiography in Loire Blue

Well I ended up leaving it for a couple of weeks as I was away working, but a couple of days in an airing cupboard should be enough. Got - 2017 SDV8 Autobiography in Loire Blue
