that airbag will also break whole windshield if it inflates, i decided not to paint the airbag cover, i will have pics soon of the interior tho

the airbag is vinyl too, you'd have to use vinyl dye, not spray paint, otherwise it will look awful. if you want to get it off:

unplug the battery
remove the airbag fuse
get a craftsman torx 60 bit from sears (i got 2 cheap ones at autozone and they broke)
pop the side covers off on the steering wheel (in between the spokes)
unscrew the torx bolts, they don't come all the way out
carefully!!! remove the airbag, you may need to pull the sides of the wheel case out to make sure the torx bolts are all the way out
unplug the harness

dye. don't clearcoat it, just dye it.

reverse to reinstall.
