Thumbs up Finally installed carbon fiber steering wheel trim

After attempting to remove the two T-30 bolts to uninstall the airbag and stripping a bolt 6 months ago... I've finally finished the replacement. With the help of a friend that owned appropriate power tools (I was using a cordless 18v drill...), we managed to get the stripped bolt out by drilling a hole and using an extractor.

Thanks to Carbon Fiber Element for the trim

It looks great!

You should buy the CF from eBay and wrap the rest of the interior to match.

Looks great rolltide!

+2 on wrapping the rest of the interior to match. If you don't mind how much does that trim piece cost at CFE?

Looks good. I've got a roll of carbon fiber wrap at home to do that exact same thing. Might get around to it this week. War Eagle btw.
