FS: Custom Alcantara thick wrapped M sport steering wheel (never installed)
Selling a minty fresh re wrapped M sport steering wheel for the F2x cars. This was purchased from a well known international E-bayer who wraps all sorts of BMW/Porsche/Audi etc wheels and the quality is as good as OEM, I can attest. The reason I'm selling is my amazing fiance knew I was hunting for an Alcantara wheel and surprised me with a new OEM M perf. unit, so this one is now available to you, at a lesser price than I paid, after duties etc. $600USD shipped within conUS or Canada. I paid $690+shipping and import/customs etc. My loss is your gain, this thing is very nice and was looking forward to showing it off, but now you can! What I really like is the tri color stitching, which is a nice OEM+ touch. Also, this is double wrapped so it's thicker (slightly) than the OEM M Performance unit, and has a slightly flattened bottom section that adds to the individuality. This is full 100% Italian Nappa Alcantara and is top notch quality. I was super impressed with the craftsmanship and feel of the material. It's VERY soft, very plush, almost softer than the OEM M wheel in terms of texture/density, and the slightly thicker sides and molded hand rest make for a pleasant 8+4 hand/wheel position. I never had a chance to drive with it, but just from having it in my hands was enough to justify the upgrade. Link to the newest listing from the member whom I purchased it from here.

Borrowed pic of the same upholstery guy who did another forum members wheel, just without the center line. Where I got my inspiration from to begin with..

My OEM wheel is heated, not sure about this one. Didn't consider that because the Alcantara is so soft, doesn't really get cold, and I don't winter drive..
If you can point me to a part# or harness style, I can tell you if it's heated or not, otherwise I don't know how to confirm.. Dylan
