Sent it off, took a while to get made (5 months) but came back awesome! I had to stitch it, and I think I did a good job. They now have a template to make it in any color and combo of material. Should be able to get one pretty quick now. Materials are nice. Just like everything the offer, this is first class quality!


Here are a few shots. I also have the shifter bood, and armrest cover from redline.

Here is Sabrina's (my wife) G5 wheel I also had sent to them. Came out pretty sexy. It is black, with black preforated sides, and a matching silver stitch to go with the silver trim inside the car, and silver paint outside the car.

Want one for my GXP, but I doubt they have a GXP wheel pattern.

^ If we can find out from someone like Crazy Paul what the differences are then they can make it. IE: GT vs. GXP mm thickness around. And actual diameter of the unit then they might be able to do it without you having to mail it in. I think it came out awesome. Mine was put on the back brunner since I was in no hurry and they were super busy. Sure it would have come sooner if it was the wheel off of my car.

I think shipped with tax it was around $100 if I am not mistaken. 10 times better then any wheelskin wrap, and can give you the sport wheel look for about 1/4th the cost.

can you put it on yourself or you have to send the wheel to them ? Do you need to pop off the airbag?

Since my car was the first G8 done, I sent it off (a spare wheel). They took measurements and all, and sent it back ready to stitch. I did the stitching myself. You could have a shop do it, but I did it in about 45 minutes or so. So no need to remove airbag, I don't think? It was a ton easier working the wheel in my lap. The wheel and airbag are super simple to pop off. 8.8 star, or 8 allen wrench to pop off the wheel, other then that, just a super short, fat flat head screwdriver and you will have the airbag off and wheel off. I could swap a steering wheel in 5-7 minutes total time. Doing it for the first time yourself you may take 15 minutes. No trim or anything needs to come off to pop the wheel and bag off.
