Does anyone know what colours the au centre consoles are?
Is it "Dark Graphite" for black interiors and grey for grey interiors or are there variations? |

I'm 99% sure "Warm Charcoal" is the black you see in AU2/3. Dark Graphite is what switches are made of, I think?

Your console is black, and the rest is 2 different shades of grey.

Your seats and door trims (and I'm assuming console) are from an AU3 Futura, meaning I think it's all warm charcoal.
And yep, that Momo wheel is hell rare - wanna swap for a warn plastic one!

Seats and trims look familiar, they may be the same as my Futura Classic, can't really tell. That steering wheel looks like an EL XR8 Momo option wheel as mentioned. Its basically the same as ours, but all black. My mate has one in his EL XR8. Maybe I should have taken up his offer for a swap after all! :P

Is that a better shot of the steering wheel? Is it an EL2 Momo wheel? Is that why the airbag doesnt look to fit 100%? And to think... i would have swapped that for the AU Blue/Black Momo... lol

You most definitely have yourself there an EL2 XR8 Momo wheel. The red stiching gives it away. I had no idea they were so rare. The only two EL2's I have ever been in both had them! You should probably hold onto that one I would say.
