This is an incredibly sweet mod, but for that money I'd rather purchase an actual racing stearing wheel and spend the left over money elsewhere. anything above 500 bux for this mod would definitely be exorbitant. The porche modifiers can get away with insanely high pricing on their products because frankly their buyers have money to burn, but we definitely do not fit in that bracket with what we drive lol.

I understand that it's a one of a kind piece, but close to a $1000 for a steering wheel?!? I could buy an entire sound system for that much...lol...good luck selling it though.

Does this include the airbag or can you even put the airbag on it? if it doesnt include the airbag thats way too much to be asking, you could get a high quality wheel for half that price. but you should throw it on ebay and see what happens. find out if it fits any higher end cars and you might have better luck finding someone to buy it.

if i didnt have to buy new tires and re-paint my bumper, i would defn be buyin this, i like it alot and i think that the stock steering wheel on the G is not thick enough. I like the feel of the BMW M wheels alot better.

That looks really nice. Nicely done custom. I assume the airbag still fits as it's done to a oem piece. I'm not sure if some of these other guys know how much custom stuff really costs. Here's a hint. It's expensive. You guys want something unique? Gotta pay.

Just So You All Know There Is A Man Named, William Rau, He Is The Best Wood Wheel Man In The World, He Asked Me $2500 And That Was A Wholesale Price. So I Thought 900 Was Cheap. At The Time I Did It.
