For you myopic people out there that couldn't get past the talk of the wheels in order to see my beautiful refinished "steering" wheel, I shall repost with before and after photos.

Needs a black leather wrap.
 
I'm attempting to refinance my house to get rid of the debt my wife loaded on me. My house is being appraised right now. My nerves are shreaking even though I know it's just part of the process.:ack:

I got a little further, I got the last broken off piece reattached (mostly). That piece is where the left defroster vent blows through. You'll notice the two pegs in the middle aren't there like the right side. After the PBA hardens on the ends I'll lay the panel on it's top and make new pegs using the drywall mesh and PBA.

I almost have all of the cracks fixed. I'll be cleaning them up next and using my dremel to remake the holes that are partially, or totally filled.

In this picture you can see how the end piece is completely missing, this is where the panel attaches to the firewall immediately below the windshield. I filled in the gap with a piece of mesh and PBA. Like i already mentioned, I'll drill out the hole that isn't currently there because of the PBA.

I always remember the appraisal as being the most nerve-racking part of the entire process
