A Suggestion: Controls Forum
This is just a suggestion for a possible sub-forum.
There is currently not a good central location for controls. IE, A steering wheel may be a costmetic mod and go in that department. However, many of us might swap our steering wheel for a wheel better suiting for a particular type of driving, which is not exactly a cosmetic mod. Short shifters and shift knobs also fall into this category, with short shifters also possibly falling in the trans department. Pedals, dash lights/ gauges are other examples. I think it would be helpful to have a section dedicated to controls modifications, seeing as the sub-forum for cosmetic modification contains a WORLD of other stuff that really isn't the info some might be looking for. I know that these items already have a place in the forum, but it feels so spaced out and decentralized. I think we might benefit from this new sub-forum. I know the traffic/ thread count would have to warrant this, and I am not sure whether or not this is something others would like to see as well. just my $0.02.

I don't think it has to be that specialized; splitting it up into exterior and interior cosmetic modifications would be sufficient.

As for the differentiation between cosmetic and control- this is where I see a problem for separating it. I have trouble thinking about it as well. Really, even if a mod is done for cosmetics, if it is a controls mod, it's a controls mod, no matter the purpose. The problem items would be things like seats- folks wouldn't know where to put the thread for that. Interior or controls? To @go_a_way1 's point, I know we can search- but I don't always know exactly what I'm looking for. To me, it would be cool to have a place where I could just freely search controls threads.

Controls without context are meaningless.
