I agree with Adam. Keep the wheel the color it is. If it's faded, you can get dye to match it to the new interior. Looks Great !!!

Ya...looks sweet!!! Keep the wheel...put a cover on it to keep it kleen iffin a has to...
Black wouldn't look right, to me(it ain't my car tho
), but a wood tiller that matched the dash might be a nice touch...

Looks awesome! That color contrast between the new and old is kiliing you though huh?
I got the same problem, my dash it's going to stick out like a sore thumb when I finally get around to putting in the new interior in mine. If I can stop fussing over the frame and suspension that is. I think working on corvettes brings out the obsesive compulsive disorder. I found myself wire wheeling and painting bolts last weekend.

Looking good Todd. You could set a trend with those console side panels. I get tired of fighting the carpet.
