    Been thinking about the interior of the Maverick and what I'm going to do. I know I want an aftermarket steering wheel. Been looking through the internet and finally something I saw in a magazine actually caught my eye. I was thinking about the "Gambler" one. (I'm planning on having a sort of wild west-cardshark kind of theme- You know...Like Brett Maverick...) What do you think?

    I'm not a big fan of the billet style steering wheels, IMO they just dont fit the maverick's styling.

    I figured it wouldn't stick out too much on account of the one I'm getting is only billet in the center, and black around the actual wheel part. Plus I figured if it clashes too much I could just zip it off for that see-through color stuff. The only real thing I was worried about is if it's too shiny it would glare like the dickens on sunny days.
