Question Replacement steering wheel - opinions

Hi all. Getting ready to purchase a new steering wheel. Opinions? (I'm sure there are many)

My car currently has an old Momo closest to today's Club 4 style. It is pretty ratted out. Anyway, although I am usually one for the original look/style, I am not a huge fan of the original 928 steering wheels, but could be persuaded if a nice enough example pops up.

Anyhow, those that have aftermarket wheels, mind posting a pic?

Thanks. Nice (both). Actually the original looks great. Did you have a local shop redo the wheel?

Scott,
I got the leather kit thru 928 Specialists and when I saw it had HUNDREDS of little holes (and Jeannie said this was easy) I took it to a local tailor shop believe it or not... the lady did it on her off time and took a couple days... people who make the kit charge $169 to do this, she charged me half that
and I can't WAIT to get it on and get that momo out of the car

I have always liked the factory 3-spoke. I'm looking to put the Momo Runner wheel eventually in my 944 and redo my 4-spoke.

The Club 4 seems to match the 928 interior a little more IMO, but both momo examples look great

Thanks. That Club 4 looks really nice. Where did you pick up the center crest?

BTW that's one of the nicest looking stock 44's I've seen recently.

I installed the 930 S wheel from AJ-USA (RennList Sponsor - you get a discount). I think it's a nice update.
