Simply make the 997 steering wheel thicker and nicer
Customer don't need a fancy steering wheel
just requested to make the steering wheel thicker with perforated leather on side and silver stitching

Very nice! I've got one just like that on order with the exception that mine is a non-tip wheel.

Will be sure to share before / after pics

Yes i sure did, the top of the steering wheel is thinner and the sides are thicker, not as thick as the BMW M series. I have a BMW and the wheel is much thicker than the one i had ordered for my 997.

How thick can you make these wheels???

Thank you,

John

Which steering wheel color combination would you recommend for my car? As you can see from the pics I have lots of silver.

love the ergonomic styling of the steering wheel. I can see this being a real comfort on long drives or give you a better grip of the wheel while auto crossing
