Carbon Fiber Steering Wheel

Found this carbon fiber steering wheel on YouTube. Wondering if anyone has this here and share some pictures.

I kinda like it, but at the same time it looks kinda off. Not sure if it's the carbon fiber pattern that is going straight up and down rather than diagonally or what. Looks bigger in size too.

I feel the same way , im not sure if I like it or not.

Needs more pictures and some time to get used to how bulky it is compared to stock

Looks a little long. Maybe it's the lens. I like this one, myself. Maybe it's the same wheel?

All these non-oem ones look horrible to me. I plan on getting the M-performance one for the G80, I absolutely loved mine on my old F80

Doesn't the M perf wheel take away the steering wheel heating functionality?

It does but it never bothered me (and it’s cold here in the winter). The alcantara isn’t very cold to the touch compared to the leather wheel.

Does the carbon one keeps the heating option on? I know the alcantara one doesnt but the carbon one looks like it can get cold pretty fast without the heating option
