It just keeps giving you that 'itch that needs scratching'
Or to be precise with my S3,it's an itch that gives you a scratch.The rubbish plastic 'chrome' top to the gearstick has been annoying me for some time now where it had chipped and was catching my hand.
Not wanting to spend any more than needed,I decided to do a bit of 'make do and mend'.The leather had also gone on the top...
Luckily I did a complete re-colouring of the leather seats in my last car so still had some of the chemicals needed,just had to get some black leather dye...

Did the re-colouring,scraped off the 'chrome' ring and slapped on a coat of Humbrol Red Enamel.Still looks a bit rough but doesn't feel rough to the touch now
