PM them on the fb link I listed and ask. This isn't my car, They are locals in Chicago, I've seen their work in person and it's night and day better than the folks who've attempted to do it themselves. As seen in some unfortunates post above

Definitely needs to be re-sewn.
I wish this guy was doing VW too. His work is also very nice.

That looks a lot like the Bak wheel, are they reselling that?

edit: Just realized their different and doing their own custom steering wheels. Very nice and cheaper than Bak. Definitely going to start saving up for this one i think.
Anyone know the part # for the steering wheel trims? or is it easy to move them over?

I did re-sew it. I respect opinions here. I happen to love it, and it cost $12.

I had a shift boot from him for my e46, great craftsmanship and the pricing was very reasonable and competitive.

The better part of that is the $750 wheel (which i don't consider unreasonable for custom c/f work) but the 30 dollar bolt on paddles slay me. Like come on, if you're gonna spring for ballin as hell setup, spring for some s2t paddles.

Is that if you give them your own steering wheel or with a new core? Also, I assume the MT wheels are cheaper.

Not bad stuff on that site. Im excited for 4-5 years form now when my steering wheel cover is haggered . Will definitely opt for a wrap! THX for the inspiratoin =D
I absolutely LOVE that wheel, but $750-850 is a lot of coin for something like that. One day though........

I agree. If it was more in the $500 range all in then I'd consider it. Still, to me, the steering wheel is one of the most important parts of the car. Its what you touch most of the time. A nice steering wheel can enhance the DD experience sooo much. I'd take it over other expensive cosmetic mods people do all day (body kits, spoilers, carbon fiber bits, etc).
Good thing is the stock gti steering wheel is pretty nice as it. Bad thing is imo the leather isn't really durable compared to others. Mine already has a few nicks on it despite me being really careful. I'm gonna try and see if VW will replace it before the bumper to bumper expires but if not then I will be eyeing this mod more.
