Alcantara and Suede Wrapped Steering Wheel Thread -- The day has come, wheel is in!

I am proud to announce that genuine Suede and genuine Alcantara wrapped wheels are on the horizon for everyone. The price point for these will be quite reasonable It it is important to note, however, that for this level of material quality and crafstmanship the price point will not be "cheap" by anymeans. Nevertheless, we pride ourselves on offering a quality product at reasonable value. We understand the importance of your funds and we only hope to deliver to the level of quality you and your Subaru truly deserve!

Unlike many wheels you may find that appear similar or claim to use similar materials our wheels will be backed by a warranty. We do not consider products found on eBay to be of similar caliber. We do not consider companies who claim to use "Alcantara-like" or "Suede-like" materials such as Ultraleather to offer similar quality products. We do not price match to these type of companies. Never settle for inferior products

We happy offer a two year, unlimited mileage warranty on all our products. On occasion, we will extend warranties on a prorated basis if you can prove to us that you maintained your product correctly, following proper care and maintenance.

With all of the above out of the way, I would love to see how many WRXAtlanta members are seriously interested in a steering wheel. The turn around time is around 1 week and I have 1 core which I can provide to you in the meantime if necessary. Additionally, WRXAtlanta members will receive a % discount on this product as well.

Photos to come soon!

Cheers,

 

Yay!!

 

W00t!!!

 

I'm interested, but what's the target price?

Also, I have an idea for another product that'd be super easy to make with leftovers(I think). I'd *really* like shift knob cover for cold mornings. Something that goes off/on easily. Maybe a pouch with elastic to hold it on. Just an idea.

 

An elastic shifter condom?

 

It would be good for hot afternoons too.

 

i would really enjoy this! If you can give me a ballpark price I'd give you a better answer, but I'm extremely interested!

 

Resin knobs FTW.

And yeah, i wanna look into getting my wheel wrapped, too.

THAT, would rule.

 

Hopefully this isn't like the Subaru warranty. I'm sorry sir, you used your steering wheel while exceeding the speed limit and eating Cheetos. We don't cover that.:keke:

I'm interested.

 

I keep a beer coozie in the car just for that. And in case I need a beer coozie on the go.

So you have to wash your hands before you drive your car? That seems kind of... annoying.

 

So maybe each wheel should come with a set of...


Wait, doesn't wearing gloves defeat the purpose of having a soft-gushy steering wheel?

 

in for pics/pricing!

 

I'd love to see pics as well!

 

Tis true. My G-Force $39 gloves on my old CRX's Momo wheel was incredible. When I'd jump into the STi on a nice day as soon as I tried to turn my wheel my hands would just slide. It was like someone put grease on my wheel. And the CRX didn't have power steering! Leather gloves on alcantara feels like velcro.

Waiting on a PM with prices...

 

I'm also very interested... you think Germ-X hand cleaner would work? Like if you find yourself in a situation where you can't wash your hands after eating something messy, would germ-x (alcohol based) make you A-OK to not unecessarily wear out your alacantara steering wheel? just a thought...

 

I got that idea from Bobby (GTscoob). So he owes you $5 too.

 

Can I have $5?

 

This wheel is teh hottness. I know a guy that bought this wheel and he won the lottery the next day. He was also invited to a threesome with Jessica Alba and that chick with the three boobs from Total Recall b/c word of his wheel purchase got to hollywood and the hollywood folk are into that sort of thing. He told me "Dude, Jessica Alba and that girl with the three boobs from Total Recall totally want to reverse cowboy me on the hood of my car while touching my new wheel. I was kind of freaked out at first b/c that girl from Total Recall is like 90 years old now, but every guy in the world wanted to do her back in the day, plus Jessica alba would be there!" So he totally went for it.

Turns out it was just some girl that looked like Jessica Alba and this lady that actually had three boobs b/c she had some sort of genetic birth defect.

They totally loved the wheel though!

 

we are into the next week already, price and pics or BAN:wiggle:

 

WoW that looks bad ass

 

It was always burnin' since the world's been turnin'...

And yeah...that looks so badass.

 

I would rather have that song stuck in my head right now instead of Benny Lava. Damn it Brett. Why? :naughty:

 

looks great, will look better with a black air bag

by the way, is that grey stitching? cant really tell

 

mmmm.... black airbag with blue stiching.... maybe pink/red.... yeah... I likey!

PRICE YOU FOOL!!!!

 

I think I could stand to look at the grey airbag with that nice wrapping on the wheel itself.

Looks very nice.

 

Me likey I can has?

Seriously Alex im broke stop coming out with all that hottness :rofl:

 

The price has been set! If you are interested in having your steering wheel wrapped we have an 04 STi and a 05 STi core. If you do not have one of these wheels you will need to either provide a core or provide your wheel.

If the line is short, I can loan you one of the other cores for the time being.

 

All PM's replied to!

 

YUH! Padded for the ultimate thickness and wrapped w/ genuine jet black alcantara with OEM match "cherry blossom red" stitch on bottom and black on top (04 oem sti style).

 

That's so hot!! Too bad I sold my car or you would be covering an STi V3 Nardi!
