Ford Focus styling help

Mines a sort of black/ dark grey colour with a silver instrument panel? in the middle. Ive seen the light grey colour dash on an LX i looked at when i was first looking for a car and it looked pretty decent.
The only thing that ruins the look of my interior is the steering wheel. It looks like someone cleaned it with a harsh cleaning product and its worn the coating off. At first i thought it was worn with usage but the seats are still really firm and the fabric is perfect.
That RS wheel might look a bit out of place in a normal 5 door focus though. I might keep my eye out for a second hand good condition wheel on ebay.
No, mines grey with a black radio panel.
I need to find some way of giving my steering wheel a clean that wont render it useless. I tried using just a damp cloth last time, but I think it must have had some soap residues on it or something....wheel went all slippery for a while after I cleaned it :/

You don't fancy colour coding the door handles as well then?
Wow, that looks great, was it hard to remove?. I very much doubt you would get flamed for posting a mod like that, its subtle and fits in with the car IMO.
Wasn't too difficult to remove tbh - although most the connectors require a very small flat-headed screwdriver. Nearly took a few chunks out of my fingers...

Awful camera phone makes it look quite a bit redder than it actually is, but the earlier pics give you a decent colour comparrison
I also did the stereo shroud, but forgot to put it in place for the picture. Plan on taking it out at some point and filling the gaps on the shroud/fascia to give it a smooth finish

Cool.
Did you find anything behind it?
When I done mine I found a very old 5 pound note and various receipts hiding in there
Just a small Albanian family - shoo'd them off without a problem though
I did however nearly lose a screw down there - thank God for magnetic screwdrivers!
This thread is giving me loads of ideas
What d'ya mean by flocking it? I'm clearly not street enough, y0!
, I think there was a thread on here a while ago where someone flocked some dash parts, looked pretty good. Its like a powder that you sprinkle on a thin layer of glue and it looks a bit like suede.Another little styling mod I suggest you Focus guys do is to fit the Peugeot 206 wiper, I got mine delivered today (Thanks DannyW) and fitted it really impressed with how it looks, getting the old wiper off was a bitch, it was as tight on as a nuns and required a hell of a tug to remove (Oh err).
