1) For $50 you can buy a custom leather steering wheel cover. They come in about 15 colors.
2) For the spokes, purchase the 08 spoke covers and sand, prep and paint as camp mentioned.
Those will take care of most of the wheel leaving only the center. I suppose you could paint it to match too, but I don't know how the airbag pops out, so you'd really want to take care not to foul that up with paint.
Actually, it looks like for OC camp did in fact paint the center section of the wheel, so it's doable.
A white leather wrap and using the blue on the spokes might look really cool on the COP GT350. But one of the fun things about some of Camp's builds are you can see the progression as he goes along figuring new things out to do. ge2 was the first person I ever saw do any type of hydrographics inside the JK and Camp took that to a whole different level going so far as to do an entire top. That's just nuts! And details like that, etc truly make them cool and one of a kind.

None taken...
Be sure to clean each piece first, and if you want it to look nice, wet sand the texture down as far as you can, prime it twice, lightly sand that, then paint it, clear it, and snap the peices back in, each step you leave out will drop the quality of the finished peice, been there, done that, bought the tshirt.

Here is what I did.....color matched all of the grey plastic. The plastic center console around the shifter and cup holder is easy to scratch so I sprayed it black and then clearcoated it for extra protection. Also painted the vents, tweeters, mic bracket and door handle surrounds.
