Default Vette Essentials steering wheel installed today

Thanks to Matt at VE, he had my steering wheel done in less than 2 weeks!

What should I buy next?? I'm thinking door pulls or emergency brake assembly?

I say get your radio/HVAC bezel painted red. That would look awesome.
BUT, if you gotta do one of the earlier choices, I say Emergency brake assembly.

Jesse,

That looks great, is that carbon fiber material on the wheel?

Yes, I changed the whole interior myself, it was black when I bought it new. Also when I covered the seats I went to the sports seats. I had to buy a steering wheel puller with long arms to change the steering wheel.
