I was able to get the same deal for an order of 5 since I did not have 10 people that wanted them, and here is a picture of them prior to shipping so for those that told me they wanted one for the silver trim ring you can see it will be easy for us to customize them as the seller told me it can be removed and replaced easily. When they arrive I will let everyone know:

I'm not sure what you are replacing. Don't you already have a colored crest on your steering wheel center air bag trim?

The silver trim ring. I wrapped mine in Miami Blue vinyl but I could not get it off without ruining it so I had to do it while on the airbag so I needed to find one that could be removed from the back as they are single use items if removed from the front. So now I will be able to re-wrap mine, or maybe paint it, since I will be able to do it off the airbag. And some want to piaint theirs Black, which is how it is on the 992.

The order just cleared customs so it should not take too long, and here are a couple pics of just the trim ring that was sent to me:

They have finally arrived and I have contacted those that asked for one; however, if you did not get an email from you please email me (blackbirdbobz@gmail.com). I ordered another set of 5 to meet the need and there are 3 left from that order still available for sale, at $75 each including shipping in the US (more elsewhere in the world). Here is what you will get:




And to those that buy these please post a picture of what you do to it such as wrap or paint it, which I assume most will do except for those that just want to replace a damaged/scratched one.

No, sorry, just what is pictured. These were only ordered for the silver circular trim ring since that part cannot be ordered on its own.

I just received the order of 5 more airbag covers and only 2 remain that are not sold so if you are interested drop me a PM; I will not be getting more after these are gone.

All have been sold. I can order more but I must buy 5 at a time. Here is what someone else has done to their Silver trim ring (carbon fiber wrap), looks nice:

I have had a couple people ask me for one (airbag cover with all the pieces shown below) but I am out; however, if I have 5 people that want one let me know and if there is enough interest I will get more.

Thanks, the 992s have a Black trim ring on their wheels so maybe they got the idea from it to make it a little different. Does the Speedster have Sport Chrono? I thought I saw pics of it and it was not there. If so they should make the trim ring on that Black to match, which the GT cars already have.

By the way, I am having my airbag trim ring painted Miami Blue since I could not wrap it well enough, and I am having a few other interior parts painted as well while that is getting done - pics soon.

Speedster has sport chrono as an option as to all GT cars except the 718 spyder where it is standard. None of them have the wheel on the steering wheel for mode select, however.

I am blacking out my wood wheel with a 2RS insert so the trim ring is now on my radar. My airbag is leather so not sure about a path forward as I assume the speedster airbag is stupid money (although I do like the vintage Porsche crest).

Did you buy one of the airbag covers I was selling? If not that is one way to get just the trim ring - if I can get a few people interested I will buy another 5. And if you want the vintage crest the one from the 356 frunk grab bar will fit (part# 644-559-210-02), which is what I put on my airbag.
