Birth of the Blue Missile

OK I finally got the cable that allows me to download pics from my phone so here is the start.
Part of the plan for the car is to run an electronic 5 speed auto with a paddle shifter. The after market paddles are expensive and look bulky. My brother in law said he had a Mazda with a paddle shifter so thats what I went after.
I got a complete steering col from an RX8 and have made it one of ours.
First pic is of the 1/4" thick M shaped piece of 'Divinicell'
Then its a pic of it applied to the insert sitting in the wheel, and then one of it covered with leather.
