not even a close match, make a thread in the buyer seller feedback forum so others will know. Did he tell you it would be a match? Im not sure any 2gen GS has that color wood

Ya. Thats it. A ES wheel not a RX.
I know I have seen that color in a Lexus loaner car before and they always give a ES or RX.

Yea, it wouldn't match great for a steering wheel, I purchased a shift **** once in that color, it wasn't as bad of a mismatch though as it's generally shaded and low on the dash. The wheel would be under sunlight etc..which would just amplify the mismatch. I would leave some feedback about the buyer if he told you that was a matching wheel.

Btw: If you paid by paypal just dispute the sale and they will resolve it for you, if he sold you something that is obviously misrepresented then you should go after your money.

Maybe try to sell in the ES forum? I am sure there are people out there that would be ok with that in their GS, but for most modders and enthusiasts that is just unacceptable. I hope you can sell it and recoup some if not all your money.

Ebay may not be a bad idea, if you are going to dispute it through paypal you should do it soon though. A dispute will take about a week or so to go through and you can cancel it at anytime. I would file asap and if you sell it or make other arrangements you can always cancel the dispute.

There is a DIY about re staining the wood.
