Default New Redline leather gauge hood for TA's

I want to show off my interior with Redline leather goods. You will notice the gauge bezel is wrapped too, it's their latest piece for our cars and it looks amazing. It fit really well and wasn't that hard to install with a little patience.

It's all black nappa leather with light grey stitching. I've got more plans to improve the rest of the interior, including sending them my steering wheel for recovering.

BTW this is a TA interior in my SS.

It all looks great!! But instead of sending your steering wheel to get covered I vote for a new one

What steering wheel cover do you have now? PS- I love the GTO ****. But I'm biased.

It looks nice, but I get the vibe that it was rather expensive.

Thanks for the compliments!

Its not that expensive at all, very reasonable for what you get.

And I would like a different steering wheel altogether but I need to keep the airbag. Currently the wheel skins cover is on it and I unwrapped a little of it to tuck in the upper spokes.

I like that. Pretty subtle...wouldn't know it was aftermarket unless you knew what you were looking at.

I wonder how it looks with Alcantara.

How do you like your alcantara steering wheel? I haven't purchased that yet. Just have the shift and e brake boot and the door panels.

Alpine INA-W900BT- Great sound, okay features. Alpine has definitely gone down hill. Their newer receivers look good but not sure if they have stepped it back up to their old reputation.
