auto transmission steering wheel replacement

just wondering if anybody knows of any steering wheels i could get for my auto trans fit. seems kinda hard with the paddle shifters connected to the wheel.

and this is a long shot, but does anybody know where i can get the grey part of the oem steering wheel in black?

Really? I would think an aftermarket steering wheel would have to be very expensive with an airbag.
Because you certainly wouldn't be removing the airbag now would you?

meh...depends.

which type of aftermarket steering wheel your looking at.
in which case i guess, if you would LIKE the air bag then it would run you about 400.

but if you dont want an airbag...then the total cost would be 400.

so i guess, they are both the same price.

i just don't like that grey part of the wheel, i think it'd look a lot cleaner all black.

^^+1 Just paint the stock.Don't mess around with the stock wheel.If you were to get in an accident and got hurt( ie.no airbag)or really destroyed your car,your insurance would not cover you.
