Anyone get the LCI steering wheel from Cvrbonized?

Ordered about 5 weeks ago and patiently still waiting…

Curious if anyone has ordered and received theirs yet and how it’s looking in terms of quality, fit and finish…

The quality of the carbon looks pretty bad, if they sent me that for $1200 i'd be pretty pissed. Lets hope those were prototypes and not actual finished wheels.

Yeah, I’m a little worried overall, but hopefully it turns out good. They also told me they had some issues with the vibration motors during manufacturing.
The bad news is that they probably won’t accept returns because it’s made to order, so if it doesn’t turn out good we’re screwed

The trim should be replaceable so if you can't return the wheel they should still send you out the carbon trim that doesn't look like a mess.

I’d stay away from this company. Currently dealing with a ton of quality issues on a full aero kit I purchased from them

I ordered my wheel on March 6th - said it would take 25-35 days to arrive and it's been now 40 days (not sure if I'm supposed to count weekends lol) but I messaged him last week and he indicated it's almost ready so not sure how much longer.

Looks like Autotecknic has it in stock. Not OEM but one alternative.

The carbon quality also seems to be a mess on those wheels, probably same supplier.

IND had this listed on their site at one point, but looks like this removed it. IND is all about quality and if this didnt pass their standards thats all i need to know.

ill wait for the OEM version to be available!

It’s in the back of the steering wheel.

I wonder what will be the work around to activate the heated wheel since the LCI wheel has no button.

Either you go aftermarket where a button is put on the back of the wheel, or you go without heating. If I end up getting the alcantara wheel, I don't care to have heating anyways as they stay relatively neutral in temperature.

There is another post with poor quality and customer service on another thread from Cvrbonized. Sounds like it's not just steering wheel issues.

These aftermarket wheels also seems to have noticeably thinner rims especially around the side grips.

Has anyone been able to find the part number for the OEM LCI wheel? It looks like some are starting to hit the dealer lots so the part should be available

I have someone keeping an eye out for part numbers for me. Nothing yet. Im waiting on headlight, OEM carbon engine cover, and steering wheel part numbers, including carbon inserts.

My only issue is losing the heating function. Which I know is something stupid to worry about. But sometimes it's nice to get my hands warm lol. Everyone is saying the Autoteckic and Cvrbonized ones are subpar quality. So I'm hoping someone else with a better supplier puts one out sooner or later.
