If only they made "clear lenses" for the rear lights.

I do too. Plus I have LEDs in everything and they glow ever so slightly due to the reduced resistance. I could only imagine what that would look like with a clear lens.

Same here. I just like to think they're part of the ambient lighting at night

Heres my GTR button at night. Matches interior lighting well.

^ I did my wheel as well this weekend. Such a PITA to get that right. But I got it nearly perfect after figuring out you can use steam to shrink the leather.

Here you go Zahy, 2 links. I bought the China one since it's way cheaper. Literally the same kit

Thanks! Ryne sold it to me. I believe he is trying to get something started with leather covering business. Trying to support "local". PITA to do but I don't pay for something I can do myself. He charges $200 I think for a wheel you give him. I may do that next time. It does feel a bit dry or rough but it covered the scratched one. Hope the Chinese leather lasts. The thumb grips are cut 4-5mm too large and the 6 o'clock corners are cut 2mm too small but are not noticeable. I need to steam like iCrap did. I do love the hell out of it! It's the perfect thickness!

Wow!!! That looks great. I wish I could do my own CF, I probably could have saved a few $$$.

Enjoy!!!

I think I know.

Does it involve a shoe perhaps?

As in, waiting for one to drop? Perhaps.

Ah Frank Gorshin, a fine, fine, Riddler. Better than Jim Carrey IMO.

I thought the other shoe was the fender gaps...curious, now, as to what it could be.

A riddle within a riddle?

Thanks! It looks like you did a nice job. I am putting these together for people who don't want to tackle the job on their own. I have a full time job, so I basically do these as I have time and sell them first come first serve. The last two sold within 12 and 24 hours, respectively.

As mentioned, these do not fit without tinkering, and they are a pretty decent pain to install, but not impossible with a bit of time, effort, and skill (a lot of patience though). I did my first one without having a second steering wheel on hand, I consider that a mistake, lol. I encourage anyone to buy the kit and install it. It really does give the wheel that slight extra thickness and comfort the stock wheel lacks.

If this DIY is not your cup of tea, but you still want the wheel, feel free to message me and we can work something out. Upgrading the steering wheel is one of the best things I've done to the car since it's basically the only thing you touch every time you drive the car. I've done a bunch of these already and have gotten pretty good at making them look . I always show the final product you will receive before payment is made and take back old wheels for core refunds.
