Thank you josh for the steering wheel I absolutely love it feels like it should have been from the factory, and added the carbon piece over the silver

defiantly took a few days of driving to get used to but it feels a little more sporty to hold onto then stock

Not the Roja Red, but...

Picked this up from Josh a few weeks back. (THANKS JOSH!)
Finally got time to install it along with fsport springs/shocks.

1st Impressions:
  • Feels great on the hands, the grooves on the leather part fits nice.
  • The CF parts have grooves also built in
  • Can't believe how LIGHT the steering wheel is compare to stock. (Well duh! Half the wheel is CF)
  • The leather quality is superb, Josh told me it's Nappa Leather (Used in high end luxary and super cars)
  • Only thing is... it might take a while to get use to the flat bottom, busting U-turns feels a bit weird.
Picture might not be in the best quality. =\

Thanks for stopping by the other day, your 3IS is very nice! Glad to see you were able to get the installation completed along with the other F-Sport suspension modifications. Thank you for the honest feed back as well

Install was fairly easy but I highly recommend that you mark the steering wheel spline AND the black clockspring behind the wheel before you remove the stock wheel otherwise you could run into problems. I marked the spline and clock spring with yellow paint to use as a reference point when mounting the new wheel. Once you remove the stock wheel DO NOT MOVE THE CLOCKSPRING. 17mm socket to remove the steering wheel nut off the spline.
