My alternative to Aftermarket Steering Wheel
I have had my fair share of failed inspections due to aftermarket steering wheels, and theres no way every year im going to take off my aftermarket one and put on my stock one. Also, theres no way ima buy one of those el cheapo autozone/walmart/pep boys steering wheel covers, so i figured i would take the next most legitimate route. www.wheelskins.com Real leather and it feels nice on the hands. Plus that was my first time ever sewing, I think I did a relatively decent job, what you guys think?

umm why would you fail inspection's? the only reason i could think of was the air bag, but from what i see you have it on that steering wheel. So what gives?
