Aftermarket steering wheel
 
2 Attachment(s)
So I custom ordered a new wheel waited 10 weeks for it. While I kinda like it, it’s not what I ordered. Figured I’d post it here just in case someone in the future wants it like this. The thing what’s wrong is the bottom is flat on the one they sent me but I wanted it more round like the picture I’ll attach from the website. I think the flat looks a little goofy

Not exactly the same but still looks good.

Now I’m in the dilemma that I want what I ordered but they refuse to refund me since i test fit it. Wonder if anyone here wants to buy it

What's your asking price... and do you have a larger pic?

The yellow stitching is going to narrow your market.

I saw your post in the FB group. I had reached out about ordering direct factory replacement wheel from them but am reluctant after reading that they won't work with you after it sounds like they sent you the wrong wheel

They did try to work with me but because I put the wheel on the car it’s not refundable. If they sent you the wrong one and you didn’t install it wouldn’t be an issue outside it still taking 8 weeks

I actually like it better than the style you had ordered. To me it`s a very nice steering wheel, but like others have mentioned your market is a small. Most likely it would be someone that has carbon fiber trim to match the steering wheel and also someone that likes the yellow stitching. A price would help, GLWS.
Do you have a link to their website? I would like to see if they make a flat bottom one, full leather, thank you.
