Steering wheel flag mod
My wife painted the wheel with testors paint. She said the white in the flags was difficult because the paint was thick. The red and silver was much faster and eaiser. Now I have to take her to dinner.

I like the way she painted the outline of the flags and the sticks in silver, did the oval in your accent color - red, and then stayed true to the actual logo colors. Very professional and a great job!
I hope you plan on taking her somewhere nice - not Denny's for their Grand Slam dinner!

Everybody compare her work to the colors on the c5 logo on floormats...maybe his wife needs to do the picking out of colors for that company b/c her work looks MUCH BETTER!!! Way to go WIFEY!!!!
