sticker/logo for Gen 4.5 steering wheel?

I have a gen 4.5 camry (2000) and have the toyota symbol on my steering wheel (OEM steering wheel). Is there anywhere that I can find a vinyl/sticker to cover the logo, to make it more attractive looking? I was thinking of getting the look of the new nissan steering wheels, where the nissan logo is in bright chrome/aluminum trim.

I was thinking something like this, but this sticker fits corollas, matrix, celicas 03 only:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...&category=6755

or if anyone has any suggestions on what i can do to the logo part of the steering wheel...the stock look is so bland. the toyota symbol is just slightly raised from the stock beige color...does not stand out at all

thanks

Sticker might be okay.... but unless your airbag was designed with a plastic/chrome trim piece in mind, I don't think you'd want to glue just anything on there. If the airbag went off that trim piece could shoot right into your face.

If you like the 3 spoke steering wheel look, you can transplant the entire wheel/airbag assembly into your Camry.

yeah i thought about the 3 spoke steering wheel from a celica/matrix/corolla, but it's so hard to find one w/ airbag and it's so expensive too.

i was thinking more of a sticker type thing, so if the airbag went off, it wouldn't hurt me. kind of like the ebay like i had...theirs was a sticker/vinyl sort of thing

Yeah, it definitely is very expensive to get a replacement wheel/airbag... mostly the airbag, not the wheel.

Maybe you can talk to a local graphics shop, see if they can come up with anything for you... The stock airbag cover is sort of textured so you'd need something pretty thick it cover up the bumps that form the Toyota logo.
