Re: Markeb01 Build Thread

I hear you. In real life (at least to me) the steering wheel doesn't look anywhere near as bright as in the pictures. The closest photo I've taken looks most like the 1st one I posted in #1419 above . The one from the driver's side doesn't look real at all, it's way too bright compared to real life. I guess the flash really sets off the metalflake. As noted earlier, I'm having fun with it right now, but I may get sick of the red wheel eventually and switch back to the black one. Even if I do, the blue shift knob has been added to the collection and won't be going back in the truck, and the GMC emblem will also remain red.

I like all the accent colors being the same, but the wheel may prove to be too much over time. It's more 1960's cartoonish, while the shiny black model seems far more classy and rich looking.
