[MENTION=26439]hinch[/MENTION] it's Royal Steering Wheel (Jacks) custom wheel, well, he's built it off the stock wheel, flattened the bottom, napa leather top and bottom, perforated leather sides, red stitching, thumb guards, slightly thicker and red middle marker. £220 ish is my estimate (£209.99 for Postage his end and the wheel, then probably another £10 for postage my end to get it down to him).
Many know of my gripes with the 350r wheel, it's lovely, except i can't add new materials to my interior (such as alcantara) without having a massive OCD fit that i'd need more of it elsewhere to blend it in. Also this is far cheaper than most 350r wheels are now a days. So win win imo, and it's unique (Ish) ;)!

It's looking at your car that makes me realise i'd have been 100% happy with the custom pack I was sure I did not want ;)
Looks superb.

Cheers man!

It was a risky move for me, I could of gone the easy route, delete the custom pack, black badges, black/dark wheels which is an awesome aggressive mean look, the main issue being that everyone seems to do it.

Hence why I went the opposite, maintain some of the chrome and keep the wheels a bright lighter colour, I feels it works so well especially with the clear rear lights. :)

Royal Steering Wheels matey. He can do whatever you want to be honest. Worth calling him as his responses to quotes are a bit slow I whatsapp'd him as his mobile number is on the site. :headbang:

Does he take your wheel in and then work his magic or did he swap one for one, not sure I want to be without a wheel for 2-3 weeks !!!

I tried a quick call and no response, so will go down the quote route, but knowing what he has done before with others would be great.

Not sure I want just the current one, re done, would need to be flat base I think

I texted as whatsapp blue ticks when it's received ;)! Took abotu 3 days to reply on the quote, however post texting like an hour after he'd seen it.

If he has a mustang wheel in stock (unlikely) he can do an exchange. Stick a post up on here and see if you can borrow one and then send it to him.

His work is really good. Been looking at his stuff for the last couple of years. I asked for the carbon fibre one that has been offered by someone else, but unfortunately he can't do it.

That'd be me, asked about it, couldn't do it, stuck with leather, all fine by me :headbang:! He hasn't got a mustang wheel in stock.

Definitley have a hunt for chaps with the 350 wheel and ask them if you can borrow their old wheel whilst yours goes in to be retrimmed, that's what i'm doing with [MENTION=13598]Gibbo205[/MENTION] . Should be able to pick it up next Monday, and then give him the wheel back at the wolves meet.

No I meant some one offered selling them to us. I spoke to Jack months ago about carbon, I think when that American guy offered them to us.
