Yes. i've done this before, once because I needed a functional wheel to be able to drive my car, and another time as a stylistic choice.
Would your wife allow you to put mismatched faucets in a dual sink bathroom?
The premise of this question is flawed, as it assumes a power dynamic that does not exist in my marriage. My wife and I take time to hear each other out on all matters. So in the event that I wanted to install non-matching sinks, as long as she understood my POV and it was well reasoned, she would most likely support my decision. Otherwise, she would voice her concerns and we would talk about it, as people in a healthy relationship do.
You get the point, I hope.
That some people are vain and overly fixated on appearances, to the point that they put form over function? Yes, I have met Apple, Rapha, and Cervelo fans in the wild.
