Default corsport H vinyl...SUCKS. jdm or nothing?

i just got mine in and i put it on perfect....i stared at it for a while and it looked oddly red and the glare wasnt the same as the chrome center....so i took it off and applied the second one that was sent to me(price includes 2)

then i applied the second one and decided it looked odd as well...

i backed up a bit and it looked fine but in the drivers seat i can tell its not the jdm red H

dunno if its just me being OCD

how do you guys feel about the red H vinyl?

red ones ricer. I have a black H and it looks fine but you can see the outline of the A if you look at it. its good way to get rid of the A but i would just get a nardi and quick release because everyone knows people like to steal mad tight jdm yo cars

lol. Guy's its $6 for two of them shipped. The real one requires an expensive JDM steering wheel swap and loss of airbags -- no one ever notices mine is vinyl.... ever.

i was thinking about doing this since i have jdm badges but i looked at it again and the red H looks weird cuz of the oval shape of the original A. So im just leaving mine with the stock A on the steering wheel haha

I don't know why someone would say it looks "ricer." It looks very clean. And it has almost no difference than the ctr one expect for the momo engraving. Maybe because you have an RSX steering wheel it looks ricer but, it looks great on an ep.

for 6bucks it was worth a try...i heard it looked legit but imo it doesn't. not gonna spend money a type r wheel just for that red H

EDIT: i wouldnt spend more than 50 bucks for a red H on my steering wheel
2nd EDIT: my stock black H has a dent in it so i wouldnt mind spending a bit of money for a replacement...

sooo....maybe i am a ricer....
