Steering wheel 3D emblem
Wow looks like factory and WAY BETTER than the cheap vinyl stickers!
Just a couple of shots, great doing business with Bryan at Vetteworksintl.com
Couldn't be happier with service or shipping turnaround.

I got mine from VWI too including the rear facia inserts. Great quality and what a difference these little touches make. Highly recommended.

Can't believe I EVER bought a vinyl sticker for the Steering wheel, I certainly feel like a tool for doing it.
These are FAR better!

Nice emblem, however I thought you did a good job in painting your logo.

It didn't match the airbag lettering, and I didn't want black airbag letters, hence the chrome letters and Steering wheel emblem.

They can pull it out first while they dig out my eyeglasses. Personally I've been in a airbag deployment, so I think it's pretty low on the totem pole of concerns. But I can see how overactive minds can dwell on all possibilities and worry yourself to death.
At the speeds I drive.... I won't care about a emblem hurtling at my face. I'll be more concerned about the concrete barriers or trucks coming at me.
My Dodge truck has the hard plastic RAM emblem in the same spot on the wheel, so it's gonna leave a bigger mark......tough luck.

Got my air bridge decal from Brian at Vette Works. Great quality, customer service and delivery time.
Your steering wheel decal looks great, Rick.

This is when the flash reflected off the "dome" so I moved the camera for the other shots. It's as clear as glass and almost transparent when viewed full on.
"Dome" is transparent here.....

At first it looked fantastic and it still looks good, but I can see the difference.
I have the same one from the same vendor.
Ask vetteman Jack, he saw mine the other day.
