The carbon fiber steering wheel looks sick, I hate the look of the stock shift ****. I can't wait to change it out.

Look for him on IG at Elvin_6188, I've seen othe>******* ***** ******* steering wheels he's done in person and the quality is top notch. It's a tad more pricey than some other places that sell these steering wheels, but he uses OEM Lexus parts so thats why the quality is so high and why I chose to go with him. Also, no one else offers the carbon paddle shifters and full carbon shift **** and I personally think they are bad freaking ***!!!

Direct message on Instagram is the best. He responds quickly. "Elvin Carbon Fiber" is his name on IG now.

Really digging the carbon wheel. When I see the red pieces, it reminds me that maybe I should have waited to find a white with red interior....

Your pictures of steering wheel beauty + my continual time behind the wheel as pace car for SCCA events caused me to contact Elvin for a quote. After a bit of rapid back-and-forth, he had in stock the wheel that I wanted. I paid through Paypal and it was shipped out immediately. Fantastic service and rapid fast / accurate ordering and fulfillment. Unfortunately, a few of the shifter ***** are out of stock. He will make me one when he gets some cores.
Will post pics when installed.

I guess this is just me But, I'm disappointed in Mr. Wong's not becoming a CL sponsor. He has garnered a lot of sales from members of this forum at the expense of DCTMS, who is a forum sponsor I know some have had issues with the service at DCTMS, personally I didn't. My DCTMS steering wheel was attractive, functional, and wore well for the time I owned my ISF.

This site lives by the support of its sponsors. Therefore, It's my opinion that since Mr. Wong garners a lot of business from folks here, he should pay his fare share and support this site.

WOOOOOOOW dude,
you had to take my post and venom-ate all over it.
Gee, if I’d seen that coming, I would have kept my ruminations on a work-of-art steering wheel to myself.
Wish I could disassociate by deleting the post, but I’ll chance it that others in the audience can see what I was explicating.
wow, thanks

^^^^Please my post was not aimed at you or any other members of this forum. But at Mr. Wong for profiting from folks here and not contributing to the welfare of this site. I am glad you found the wheel of your dreams Please enjoy!

SORRY, if I offended you! But, it's something that has been brewing with me for awhile! Maybe I should have kept it in. Again. SORRY I meant no disrespect and SORRY I rained on your parade! I sincerely apologize!.

Lou, I'm not even sure that Elvin even knows this site exits, lol. While his work has become quite popular on here, he seems to have developed his business and following on Instagram (that's where I first contacted him). The quality of his work and word of mouth is keeping him busy. He seems to have enough work without sponsoring this site - but maybe that will change in the future. I am currently waiting on some pieces from him, but his Lexus supply chain is messed up due to Covid - so he can't do what I want until he has the parts. You should consider reaching out to him and inviting him to join the site (or maybe that has already been done?), or maybe I will ask him when I hear from him next. While it would be nice if he became a site sponsor, I would not pretend to understand his thinking and whether that would be a good idea for him - it may create a situation where he could not possibly fulfill all the orders he gets. I'm just happy to have some of his products!

^^^^He knows of this site and posts here on occasion. Most of his posts get removed by the mods. Here's one - Post #2.
