WTB Carbon Fiber Steering Wheel Cover

Anyone know where I can buy this? I just want this piece... Not interested in a whole steering wheel since the sport wheel is good enough. Thanks!

I emailed KW Tam on ebay and they said its $150 USD shipped. Has anyone dealt with them? Longtran, I know you were getting a group buy put together where they were making the parts. How did that go? Thanks!

the supplier from ebay wasnt very keen in terms of getting back to me w/ my questions. i figure this partially due to the time difference and their lack of the english vocab.

so sadly, i still have the plastic cover like everyone else. noticed some people have the silver trimed covers straight from the factory (guess non-US). in any regards, im looking for the AC steering perforated steering wheel which comes w/ the carbon cover. i just love the thumb grooves on that thing.

ACS steering wheel.

I'd be happy if that was my only interior mod. I don't even need the silver cf.

edit: damn, what am I high. wandered into the marketplace didnt even know.
