S65V8 · 12-27-2011, 01:23 PM

Finally took some ok pictures with a point n shoot camera. Have the Alcantara Performance wheel and OEM exhaust done in these picts. IMO, Perf. wheel was worth every cent!

Auto Couture Motoring in NJ can get you both the Alcantara Wheel and the OEM Mod Exhaust. Note, everyone has their own way of doing the OEM mod exhaust, I thought ACM did the best job / had the best sound.

i just got my wheel yesterday i cant wait to install

I love that steering wheel, but I can't get over that it actually takes up more real estate than the stock round wheel. That bothers me to my core. Form is supposed to follow function, not the other way around.

I had the same issue before and the fact that if you have sweaty palms you can ruin the wheel. The reality is it isn't noticeably bigger, and the material, stiffness (less spongy) feel more than make up for any issues. IMO.

Where did you purchase the steering wheel?

ziosilvio · 12-28-2011, 03:35 AM

cool

ailikesiliu · 12-28-2011, 04:11 AM

Looks really good, what kind of tips on the exhaust?

jonasaurus · 12-28-2011, 04:33 AM

You could get the wheel at any dealership or Auto Couture Motoring in NJ. Prices will vary across the board. Let's just say I wouldn't pay retail for this wheel.

Thx! Not too worried on the dirt factor, as my car is usually spotless and clean all-around. Even if it were to look worn in a year, I'll just get another one I think. PM me and I'll reply w/ price.

Powerbeast · 12-28-2011, 11:02 AM

Congrats!!! I got mine last week and I love the performance steering wheel
