Default Carbon Fiber Steering Wheel

Hey guys, I jumped on the group buy Carbon Fiber Element was doing for the CF steering wheels. I'm glad I did, I just receieved the wheel yesterday and it looks amazing in person. The quality of the work is excellent. I deal with a lot of carbon fiber in my line of work and the quality is eaisly just as good. The customer service was excellent! I got updates and pictures when I didn't even inquire for any. That was amazing to me. It took the wheel a couple days to get to me and about 25 minutes to install. I used Mr&Mrs DIY for advice, heres the link: DIY: Steering Wheel Removal

Here's some pictures, their off my iPhone so sorry for the quality. Plus it was 103 degrees in my garage so im trying to keep the dripping sweat from hitting the screen lol.

Not bad. Debating whether or not I want to make permanent modifications to my 40th.

Billy, looks like you need the GTR start/stop button.

I got in on a group buy so it ran me $450. I'm not sure what the usual charge is but I know it could cost up to 2k to buy a carbon fiber wheel. The work was done by Carbon Fiber Element. I'm even happier then I thought I would be with it. I'm much happier gripping the carbon fiber then the leather that came on it. I don't think the group buy filled up and I was the second person in line so I'm sure there's space if your interested.
