Hi,

Robt. - looks nice. I'm curious, do you have issues with glare when installing these trim rings?

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99

I put the trim rings on mine as well. There's no daylight glare problem with them in place at all. What I find cool is that at night, they give off a little extra reflection off the background gauge illumination.

Blinkwatt,

Glad they made it safely. They look much better than without. Take care,

Mike

Looks good, man! I like the upgrades. One thing though--Porschekid is right--your badge on the steering wheel is definitely a little too far to the right. It doesn't line up with the center of the steering wheel.

Also, is it just the photos or are your seats turning brown? They look like they might be a bit dirty is all.

I noticed thats how the seats look unless they are in direct sunlight when pictures are taken with my camera,but they are still definitely the way they are supposed to be=not brown.
