Updated steering wheel?

Anyone out there got a newer steering wheel. Is there any company’s that make them? I know there out there for the 6th gen. Something with carbon fiber or tach in the wheel?

You can check out carbon steer. That's where I plan to pickup one. Have great reviews.

I got mine from SoCal Garage Works. $675 shipped after thier tax break sale. 8 weeks to be delivered but it's completely custom, any color/material combo you want. I did carbon fiber with Alcantara and red stitching.

Great experience with them.

Meh. He’s turned into a douche. Stopped watching him.

Found this at next gen speed. No experience with them at all, but it's a nice looking design in the pictures anyway.

I really like these CF steering wheels and would like to bring some CF inside to match the exterior hood insert.

My son is telling me no - CF on the inside of a 2013 muscle car is a no-no. He is of the opinion that it just doesn’t match the essence of a muscle car and is too JDM. I disagree but he’s planted seeds of doubt!

I think in the steering wheel subtlety isn’t a bad look. Top and bottom half and then rest wrapped in alcantera is a nice touch. Then it keeps from having to clean the alcantera so much. Seeing how your hands are usually on top or bottom of the steering wheel when driving. I like the above pic minus the red line.

Thanks, I at least wanted to do something about the gawdy gold bow tie that doesn't fit in on the airbag. It was driving me crazy lol. I redid all the bowties with either CF or removed them.

Yup, that's where I got mine too. Great dudes to work with!

Different strokes. As you said it comes with CF from the factory so what's the difference?

From SoCal Garage Works you can get it with a different color stripe or no stripe at all. Totally up to you. I like the small red accents and it matches my shift knob which is also CF.

Yes I agree it looks good with your shifter. I like the idea of the shift lights in it. But not sure if it’s really worth the money.
