nice choice, form follows function
It should arrive about 3 days before I head down to VIR

This was one of the main reasons I went w/ this style wheel!

Wow...does it feel as good as it looks? I look forward to the additional pictures soon.

Are you planning to have the shift **** and e-brake done in suede as well?

Yes, it feels great!! extra padding makes a huge difference imo...

I am considering doing the shift boot, but probably not the **** and e-brake handle...we will see...

Thanks!

Yea, they do great work. A friend of mine did something similar to yours but the opposite....leather upper and lower and suede/alcantera on the sides.

Nice mod. I've been thinking about the same thing for a while. I like the thicker feel and the Alcantara will be nice. What color do you call what you got?
