Horn ring finish on back
« on: May 17, 2025, 13:40:26 »
Hi folks
Took steering wheel off to get cars to the back of fuse box

On removing steering wheel, I note the horn ‘ring’ appears to have traces of black.
Wondering if all the back should be black, maybe to reduce reflections? If so Matt/statin/gloss?

Thank you once again 🥰

Have seen both painted satin black(same as air filter canister) and mostly those just plain chrome.
Its up to you to decide the finish.

Thanks Walter, good to know 🥰

I did go for painted in satin black as think that’s what Bessie may have had originally 😎
