Default Chrome Trim
Kinda bugging me with my aftermarket wheel missing the bottom chrome trim. Has anyone somehow transferred from oem to aftermarket? I looked at it other night but will have to take it to car and compare and give close look, but from glance I gave it I'm thinking no go.

Replace the airbag cover and it'll look a lot better.

Agree that the wheel will look a whole lot better and more complete with a new airbag cover.

If you did get something to fit keep in mind it might hit you if airbag ever went off.

Those fit over the oem? Cover as in cover? Think I would want one with actual air bag in it. But probably big bucks.
But eeven with one of them or even one with air bag chrome trim piece on bottom won't happen. Not a big deal just bugs me.

You remove your airbag and place it in the new cover. The oem is just a cover as well.

*You can also swap out the controls for those without the chrome trim.

Not bad pricing think will be my next purchase. She is going in for fresh paint job in 2 weeks so after that bill is paid steering wheel cover next.

i don’t remember what it looked like in back when changing wheel. I would imagine it is obvious when in hands?
