Custom Carbon Steering Wheel job

Hi all,

I can convert your old looking Steering Wheel into this, or into any other look that you want, you just have to mail me your SW.

The top of this SW was covered in real 3k carbon fiber. Real top grade automotive leather on sides and alcantara on bottom, with silver stitching.

The silver audio control trim pieces where cover in 5d carbon vinyl, but i will not do the vinyl cover job (just real carbon cover)

Price is $550 + shipping (I dont know the shipping price to Mexico).

If you want the audio trim pieces in real carbon fiber, add $220.

Thanks!

i LOVE the wheel design and the work looks top top quality, sadly the 2 alcantara bits make it look alittle odd.... i think it needed to be leather here and it would be nice to see the fork section at 6 o'clock still have the divide for detail.

overall very nice job. Bmw did a great job on the z4 wheel, so with these added touches it looks ACE.

Top half is absolutely phenomenal.
Replicate on the bottom and you will sell many.

I would add that the top cf extends down a little to far into the grip area.
IMO it should finish above the thumb rest, not halfway through.

On a slightly different note;
I really wish that someone made real cf trims for our wheels.

If you can do the split in the middle, an m steering wheel, minus the alacantra, and give an eta turn about time, I'd be interested.

i can do that, in fact i can do whatever you want with your steering wheel. the alcantara was just my personal taste, but of course i can make a different one.

it would be great if you could show me with a photoshopped image, how exactly you want the job to be done to your steering wheel.

my best regards,

I have an interest in just OE spoke covers in cf.

I mean no disrespect, but do you have any references such as eBay seller rating etc.
You are new hear and we don't know you.

my ebay username is: jaimebtrevi

but i have not sell anything yet on ebay. My reputation is 100% positive as a buyer.

we can use paypal for the payment method, that way you can be sure that if you do not received your steering wheel/trim as expected, you could claim your money back directly through paypal.

other than that, you should know that i have no intention of getting myself involved into a legal matter just for 500 bucks.

regards,
