For one.. there is no reason to waste space and post this in this post, as well as 2 others. I thought I was going crazy but looked backed and saw this same post in other posts.

Second. In my opinion, I think it looks horrible from the picture i c on your cardomain site. I hope you didn't buy it because it looks like someone just cut the leather off a standard steering wheel and called it a Blackwood Steering wheel.

Keep you geniune Infiniti steering wheel.. Don't rice your G with some lame a$$ steering wheel.

Sorry, but wanted to be honest with you.

Sorry bro, I'm not feelin that steering wheel. Or perhaps I'm overlooking what's so special about it?

But it's your car, so do whatever you want to it.

Nice looking ride...

I was thinking the same thing, I don't see the benefit. if it's wood, it would just make it slippery when your hands sweat.

The pics make it hard to see the wood, but if it is anything like a nice mercedes wood wheel, it must be nice.

My former car (mercedes) had the wood wheel. It was a thing a beauty to hold while driving!!!

I am not a fan of "black" wood, but if you have the wood interior on your G, a factory matching wood wheel would look very elegant.

Oh, Well.

looks like this $450 mod didn't fly. I never had a wooded steering wheelm
not even the Mercedes C320 I had before this car. So I though this would
help me to stopping thinking about lexus cars that had nice wood steering wheel.

Thank god it does look much better in person. Sorry I got too exited after waiting for 2 month.

OK, moving on to the next mod...
