You know your upholsterer is in to it when you walk in the shop and see this hanging on the entrance .

Stupid question is why a roadrunner emblem on the steering wheel when it is a charger. The dodge emblem would be better. Yes, No, or maybe.

Not stupid, it is a mock up drawing from who knows where. I can assure you it will "correct" when the interior is done.
