New custom wheel from AliExpress
I couldn't find a newer wheel in sand beige and didn't want to spend $1500 so ultimately did some research and took the plunge with AliExpress. 10 days production. 14 days shipping. Fit and finish are absolutely fantastic, near OEM basically. Not an exact match for Sand Beige but I'd say close enough. $680 shipped... so much cheaper than buying stateside, especially since they'd just be getting it from the same Chinese factory. Next up I'm wrapping some of the dash trim that goes across the cupholders to add a bit more CF.

Racer
Looks good. I have the same dilemma and have been considering Vivid racing for doing pretty much the same wheel you have here. Other alternative is Royal (I think that’s the name) in the UK, which is just leather, but a lot less expensive.

I'm guessing junk yards? He happened to have a Sand beige 987 wheel in stock so they finished production super fast.

Too early to tell. I only got a quick drive in. The wheel is thicker than stock which is obviously intended. The carbon parts take some time to get used to because they're smooth. I like it overall. The original wheel is like driving a school bus. This feels much more sporty and intentional.
