Please excuse my ignorance, and I even searched a bit, but what's the benefit of the IS300 wheel over the stock SC300/SC400 wheels? Other than 4 spoke to 3 (at least from my 98 400), and black, I just wasn't sure what the big difference is, at least as much as it would urge someone to take on the switch-over process.
Matguy... I'm sure someone can better answer this question for you. But for me it's just nice!
Anyhow, big shout out to D3an for the advice. So I ended up painting my steering wheel column. Tools you need can be seen on the photo. Time: little less than an hour. I ended up using plastidip so I can always peel it off back to its original color if needed.
depending on the connector for the airbag. there is a jumper harness available or you can cut and splice your old connector onto the new airbag. and you will have to reuse your cruise control stalk/switch for cruise to work. i used an rx wheel and airbag because I didn't like the shifter buttons and a manual IS wheel was harder to come by.
