    Anyone on here knows what a black airbag cover for the 430 goes for and does anyone have one for sale in good condition?

    The airbag cover material is not a separate distinct part number, its actually part of the airbag assembly itself so if your cover is damaged you have to replace the complete airbag.

    Or if you're looking to change the colour, I changed mine from red to black using a simple spray can for dyeing synthetic leathers.

    I am buying a black steering wheel however it is not compleat with the airbag and airbag cover... Are these two separate items? My original wheal is coio and this wheal that i am buying is black... I was thinking about just getting my airbag cover reapulstered however if I want to switch back I may not be able to find an exact color match. Any ideas?

    Ok. Switching back to old color is definitely not possible. Reupholstering the airbag is not recommended as it's a safety issue. The factory airbag cones with prelined tear lines for the airbag to deploy. Pasting another material over risks the airbag not deploying at all or in time during impact.

    A brand new airbag is going to cost you. My advice, search for a used one (rare) or just paint it and not try to reinstate the original color ever!

    Good luck!
