In my opinion you have totally screwed your car. in twelve months when the paint starts to crack and get scratches in it, it will look even worse. each to ther own lucky i know what i am doing so it will last last and if it dont i can do it again maybe a different colour if i got the s**t with it by then and best of all i can do it back to original if need be
Painting your interior garish colours should be limited to Rice Rockets and VN Commodore owners who seem to have a fetish for yellow and green in thier interiors!!! Sorry......... the joys of being in the trade hey

the quality of the paint job on everything looks good... is a bit too over the top for me.. but each to there own.. sounds good the future work... i wouldnt mind an aftermarket wheel either.. but with the airbag im not confident i wouldnt get picked on by a fussy cop.. and why would i want to downgrade the safety items in my car??

It looks good, but honestly, if you compromise looks over safety, best that you check with your local RWC centre in QLD to see if the wheel is legitimate.
