I was wondering if anyone found or could make, Perhaps @GRP , a center steering wheel emblem that was the same as the yellow center caps on the wheels.. I would love to match that, as I have the yellow brake calipers and want to get the yellow gaitor for the shifter as well.

Any one have any thoughts on where to source something like that?

Thanks

Replied via PM but yes we can do the wheels in all leather, all alcantara etc. Whatever you want really!
The badges are listed on our website.

Just a suggestion...

If you're going to use tape, rather than electrical tape which tends to be glossy and an obvious add-on, you may want to look in to a self-adhesive leather patch/tape which comes in many choices of colors. It's sold on Amazon, relatively inexpensive too, amongst other retailers. It's easy to and blends in a lot better because it has a grainy surface like the rest of your steering wheel (the leather ones, of course).

These leather patches/tapes are generally used to patch up holes and scratches on leather furniture so they tend to be pretty resistant to fading and scuffing. The backed adhesive that comes with the patch/tape may, however, not be resist the high temperatures in the interior of your car, particularly in the summer, and may begin to unglue. I masked around the borders of the marker to protect the black leather on mine and then applied a little contact cement just on the end joining section. It has held up very well to date, and I live in the inferno of South Florida!

My interior is Tan, so I went with that color for the marker and I was amazed to have found a near perfect color match. Here's a pic.

When you're writing a new post or replying to someones existing post, you'll see the paper clip "Attach files". Open that and you'll be prompted to add photos from either your PC or Smart Phone.

Yes but the grp one is not the same color yellow. So I have to return it now.
 
GRP has multiple options, including old yellow and new yellow.

Oh yeah I just got my yellow and black one but it sounded like @RyanGphoto thought the colors were off. The new yellow/black looked good to me but I haven’t compared them to the other emblems on the car like the wheels or nose

The new yellow doesn't match the calipers or the nose badge yellow.

I recently had a shop match the calipers with the steering wheel and lower steering wheel yellow.

Oh, those pieces aren’t near each other so not that big deal. Right now my steering wheel emblems is black/silver and everything else is yellow/green and I didn’t notice lol
