Small fix it, maybe a mod?
So, the other day on the way home from work, I hit a bump with my Dunkin donuts coffee in my shitty cup holder, which of course sends a tsunami of coffee flying from the lid onto my seat and console. I instinctively went to grab it. Bad part, my wedding band put a zoro-esque "Z" scratch on the bottom spoke of my sport steering wheel from my right hand traveling across my body. Dead center of the spoke too. Great
So, thinking of a way to fix it minus getting a new steering wheel, I think of the M-Sport steering wheel, with the sticker in the middle. It dawns on me at this point, why not just try to put one on to see if it looks ok? It has to look better than the goddamn scratch!
Here are the results. I know it can be viewed as a poser move, but I think it actually looks decent! (Note, it is a little off center, for optimal scratch coverage, which the sticker covered 95% of, there is still a little visible in the upper right corner in the 2nd picture)
Comments welcome!
