Default New pictures (new corbeau a4s, momo wheel, and fresh zaino)

Just got took some new pictures and wanted to share. Finally got her back after being repaired from a little incident at 'streets of willow'. Did a clay, polish, and zaino and wanted to show her off with some of the new goodies a little before autox in a few weeks.

Is the filler plate on your single din a lighted corvette logo or is it just blue lettering and the light in the photo that makes it appear that way?

That wheel looks great. I've always wanted to throw a Momo Monte Carlo wheel in mine

Yes, I like the way it looks but tell us how the wheel drives? Is it just good looking? How much improvement is steering feel/control do you have?

It's LED back lit and can be controlled with the interior light dimmer ****. It is lit up in the pictures since I have the door open. It's made by "HU mount" and they can customize what you want written and what color LED

Thanks I am going to check that out when I do my single din. I am leaning toward single din over double din for cost reasons. I just don't need navigation and that extra stuff.

The combo of the wheel/seats/mgw shifter have completely changed the feel of the car for me. I love the wheel and how different it feels. Since it is a fair amount smaller than oem, the steering feels quicker and I feel like the feedback is increased (not sure if that's just in my head or not but it seems legit haha). Also, the feel in your hands is also better from the superior materials and 'thumb grip' areas

Good to know. I have liked all the momo products I've ever tried. I am putting this on my mod list.

Nice shots
I agree with Jax that single din bezel looks awsome.

Yeah, I was going to go with a CF filler plate but I like that better. I'm going with that!! I will probably do navy blue, red or silver depending which looks best.

Some really nice changes to your car. I like the faceplace for the radio - very cool.
