I have the exact same steering wheel cover. Once he gets an exhaust: nice.
I've never been much of a fan of the Supra wing, but it looks nice on his car.

I like the car, especially the wing. What size rims are those?

The steering wheel cover is, surprisingly, really nice. It's strictly Wal*Mart, of course...but it's not bad at all. It's bumpy in the three patches of red, and you can get a complete grip with just fingertips when you're feeling extra-lazy on the highway.

One thing I always hate about the stock steering wheel... if it's hot out, and I'm sweating, my hand slips a lot when making turns. Happened on my Acura too.
It may not be Momo, but for $3 how bad can it be?

On the other hand, the chrome washer nozzles and "honda" banner: not so good.

i like the way it looks, stands out. Not sure why everyone wants their car to look "stock". I want a car that gets noticed and that I like. I like the chrome nozzles over the oem black plastic. i dont see whats wrong with em (the lights arent hooked up) but it looks nicer than 2 black dots IMHO.

to each his own... chrome in general looks tacky, even rims unless you're running a huge car/suv

you posted pics, we gave some opinions... if you like it, please dont let us change your opinion

Yeah, it's all a matter of taste. Some people love chrome (as on the door handles of the new 350Z), some people hate it. One guy here in town was third-string QB for the Browns last few seasons, he bought himself an Escalade with HUGE chrome rims with his minimum-league salary (500K a year?)...
Even those I find a bit tacky.

Hard to say, though, since I love my steering wheel cover lol!
