i have black with aluminium option. it looks great; on grey it would still show a great contrast imo.

since it's so rare you are most likely going to have to order through a dealer IF you want OEM - don't know if there is even an aftermarket alternative.

nevertheless, the cheapest price you'll find will be from Sunset Porsche as they will do cost + 15% when the mark-up is usually close to 100%. good luck

this is where i got my alu wheel. there were a number for sale on Ebay a few years ago, but they seem to have dried up. Carewal are great and it is real Porsche stuff. you should also get the leater airbag to go with it.

go through "interiors" to the P96 and you will see the alu steering wheel. it is available in all colours.

just figured out how:

the first is from about 25' above the car. you can see the wheel from quite a distance when looking at the car.

pics no workee-

You'll need to upload pics to flickr or photobucket, right-click the picture and select 'copy' - then edit your post and do a CTRL+V (paste) anywhere in the body of your post.
That works really well..

Just a update guys. I put my order in today for a Graphite Grey 3 Spoke w the Alumn Trim just like the pics C4S put up. I got it from Sunset. Eric was awesome its a 4-6 week lead time though, it has to come from Germany. He said they have only have 4 left in the world w this color combo whatever that means haha. Quick question, i should be able to reuse my airbag from my 3 spoke now correct?
Ill post pics when it comes in next year Thanks guys

Mind telling how much for the wheel? I saw a similar wheel made by gemballa on Ebay run for about $1200. Just curious. Thanks.
