steering wheel hub work stuff

So i took all of the old setup off, and I put on the VW hub I bought thats the right spline size, but its slightly loose/ had a little bit of play in it.  IM pretty bummed about that, so I think I might just end up modifying the OEM hub (cutting it shorter and welding on a circular plate with the momo/ sparco 6 bolt pattern.  Or maybe just drilling that pattern into the OEM hun and cutting and re-welding it to make it a short hub, well see.  Or maybe the play wont be there when the nut is tightened on.

I painted the plastic cover too, green.
