Thanks. I assume you just used a thin coat since you can still see the texture of the original. How is it holding up?

Atbtech05 · 08-09-2012, 04:58 PM

I used two thin coats and I had to blow on it after each coat for the texture to go thru correctly. So far, it's on there pretty good.

so swapping from 2010 to 2013 sterring wheel 1le or ZL1 suede consist of what parts?

Just because the 2010-2011 wheels were Camaro specific, doesn't make it better. That wheel made it seem like you were piloting a freaking sailing ship, the new one is better...deal with it.

Just be happy what you have

Owned a 2011 VR 2LT/RS Camaro and now a 2013 2LT/RS CRT Camaro and like the sterring wheel better

The guy doesn't like his steering wheel. Big deal. So he has to "deal with it"? Maybe he wants a different one. Just like some people get LS's and get new wheels in place of (what some would consider) those ugly AZZ heritage steelies. If you wanted to change your wheels I'm assuming nobody would tell you to just keep your wheels and "deal with it".

Everybody has what they like and what they don't like. He is no different.

Hey guys - I know this if somewhat off topic, but does anyone know what the dark, question mark shaped line is from in this image to the right of the bow tie? It starts top middle of the bow tie and goes around to the right and then down to the horn symbol. It's on mine and I've never figured out what it is and can't clean it off... I thought I was the only one until I saw this photo...

We drive a car that EVERYONE has modified or wants to modify. Why is it okay for everyone to want to upgrade everything, but when I don't like my steering wheel everyone flips a lid? I'm not asking GM to redesign the car for me, all I asked was if anyone knew about any aftermarket steering wheels because I've only seen two, and didn't particularly lime those either. If you don't know of any, leave the post alone.

I just hate that the radio buttons are on the right side of the steering wheel,

I like them much better on the left side. I think chevy missed the boat on that one.

But i love my 2010 style
