I have the wheel for 1 week now and all I can say is: I wish I had done this before, it is the best mod under a 1000 euros.
The leather is super soft and even feels much better than the JCW alcantara wheel in my Mini.
Now I have to find a cheap pre 9/05 M wheel and send that to him.

I have looked for pre 9/05 M-steering wheels but did not want to spend 750 euro's for a wheel with a used airbag. The only thing I wanted was a thicker wheel with nice leather and now I have found a German ebayer that sends a wheel with new leather and asks for a deposit that you get refunded as soon as you send the old wheel back. I wish I had done this earlier
