thx, not every one likes the same thing, I just don't like the sound of my hands over the oem steering wheels on f80m3, I think BMW could have done better, the leather on the f80m3 feels more like plastic to me then leather.
to each their own.

Could you post some better pictures in daylight without flash? It looks good. Definitely a lot of carbon fiber in the interior.

Where did you purchase it from if you don't mind me asking?

I have a carbon fiber flat bottom steering wheel in my M5 but I opted for the half carbon top, lower carbon inserts on lower half of the wheel with perforated leather with M tri color stitching.

is hard to make flat bottom on this steering wheel, because of the center trim that gos on top. that need to be also cut and join b4 refinished in carbon fiber. or make the walls look like flat bottom but that well just make it look funny

thx bro, I know u been looking at it at the meet lol

I love carbon fiber this is for my own lol

just let gilbert/mckenna know how and what u want on the steering wheel, from leather to sawy, or Suede. what kind of stitching how much carbon and where u want it to be. even what color of the rings on top.
the turn around for him to order it for u guys is 4-5 weeks. all made here in USA, Los Angeles.

Steering will is cool with the suede inserts but judging by the pictures it seems as though it's too much exposed CF.
