Default '04 steering wheels are greenish?

Ive been looking at used '04's and their steering wheels are always green, even with well-maintained cars and its a noticeable contrast from the rest of the interior. Can you guys help me out, is this something Honda did or caused by sun damage? In the '04 brochure the steering wheel is black like the rest of the interior.

The one is my car is still black. I have had it installed for over 1 year. I have done nothing to maintain it yet either. Now to clean my car. Also I have a spare in a box and it looks the same, only dusty.

Well I'm talking about ones that come with cars. Is yours an 05 by chance?

green? Something is wrong, or maybe you're colour blind?

Well my whole interior is black, so why would they make the steering wheel green.....I have 11K on my car too, so far it looks pretty black to me and also it doesn't seem like it's gonna go green any time soon.

Ah,

Either your monitor or video card need to be replaced, or need adjustment. Something is not displaying images correctly on your PC.

They all look fine to me.
