This part isn't for everyone, however the quality is pretty impressive!
The owner hated the wood grain on the interior from day one and wanted something different that would make the interior pop but didn't want to smooth and paint everything like most mini trucks out there. We came up with this idea and he enlisted a local tattoo artist to hand paint all of these pieces after we color matched them to the interior. It's pretty incredible that these were all hand done with a brush!
You guys should take apart the steering wheel and do the side parts, we just painted a set and they look much better than the stock silver color just an idea.

The owner likes those pieces and they match the A/C vents. It's kind of the "where do you draw the line" thing. He likes the woodgrain on the wheel also because it reminds him of his Chevelle he had when he was younger.
Great fab work guys and hats off to the tattoo artist that did the paintings too. I like the "strictly business" outside and colorful interior. I think they go well together.
^^I agree with Chris. I think adding some painting to the steering wheel would be a nice touch.
Regards,
Ryan

We got all of the small loose ends buttoned up under the hood over the weekend and got some final shots of everything put together. Now we just have to decide on colors and finishes for all of the pieces.
