Some Rennlister's have asked about cost... I'd hate to give numbers because Don Le (Dallas Steering Wheel), prices everything based on the job and spec. I will say that I thought he was VERY reasonable - and that all the parts were recovered for a bit less that the OEM GT3 alcantara E-brake.

Looks very nice - I like the black much better than gray. Perhaps some black floormats with red stiching might pull the whole thing together with a matching alcantara steering wheel???
Very sharp.

Yeah, Im definitely going to do the steering wheel... just dont know if OEM, custom, or FVD is the way to go.
To be honest, the weakest part of the whole project is the OEM shift **** - it just feels more flimsy than I thought it would. But the B&M is just AWESOME. I can not stress it enough - the shifter is absolutely great. The effort is increased - and it took me a couple of days to get used to it... but now its butter. If you have ever driven a S2000 - it is similar in feel.
