Looks super sporty, mind sharing the parts and where all this came from? I'm sure members would love to know how you did all of this .

No, that's an IS350 wheel, I had to wire the paddles to the transmission, they work great, and I love it

Nice center console! Is that carbon fiber vinyl wrap? Did you do the door trim as well? Looking clean!

Can't wait for the wheel Diy! Thanks for your hard work!
