i love the steering wheel. your old one was definitely worn out, someone's been driving HARD i see lol!

surprisingly....im not feeling the shift knob either. i saw these online not too long ago and thought it would be a good idea. but i guess the actual application varies.

After looking at this, it appears the wheel itself is the same. Is this a cover you bought? I have seen them on ebay. If so, was the threading process difficult????

Where'd you get that one? I'm also not quite feeling the "LCI-like" knob.. but that M5-like one looks not half bad.
