Someone needs to tell RJ to streamline production and just stock black steering wheel covers. The Ocean Coast looks terrible.
They should get rid of the exterior colors I don't like too.

Someone needs to check their facts before complaining - they don't make Ocean Coast steering wheel covers.

Someone needs to tell RJ to ignore you.

Of course he means airbag covers. But he's wrong on it not being worth the extra production costs to have 3 different material choices. :cool:

They have a vat of the white stuff around for all the other parts, why not make an air bag cover?

Not really sure how much streamlining that actually does, but as someone who looks at and uses an OC steering wheel everyday, not a terrible look but a beautiful one. taste is personal.

Wow, so much shade from this forum! FWIW, I agree with you 100%. I know it's completely subjective, but I also hate the white steering wheel. Looking into way of replacing it or maybe dying it. I'm not getting mine until next month, maybe it will grow on me.

I don’t have Ocean Coast but I think the white steering wheel/airbag is awesome. Very modern.

I loved the look of the gray steering wheel on the original light wood design, but I think it looks out of place with the black dashboard behind it.

That said, it bothers me far less in person than it does in pictures. I don't regret getting ocean coast one bit. I actually can't imagine getting any other color.

I didn’t like this at first either, but I got used to it. I imagine you could swap the part out for a dark one.
