Default CF Steering Wheel Brought to you by CF Element

So 2+ months ago I had the idea to have my steering wheel wrapped in Carbon Fiber. Since Tony@CFElement & myself have done plenty of business in the past I figured he'd be the man for the job. With the help of Mike Sweeney at A.M Performance, I was able to order the wheel which was to be wrapped. I told Tony I wanted the flat bottom as many exotic cars have the same thing & it looks badass. Here is a timeline of the wheel being wrapped: Again, thanks soo much to Tony & Mike Sweeney for helping me complete this dream project

Steering wheel came out real nice, but adding that into the car with other **** wrapped in carbon.... it's too much for my taste. The steering wheel alone would be great though

Better pics tomorrow, I don't have that much stuff wrapped so everything flows nicely.

I want!!!
How much would something like that cost but with sequential shift lights in the steering wheel like in the Ferrari 599?

I am liking the interior of the Z with CF, although that's way too much gloss for my taste.
