Super nice! Does the wheel get hot when car is parked and baking in the sun for hours?

Thank you 🙏

The CF part does get hot but I try to touch the leather part until it cools down. It doesn’t take long once I start the a/c or roll the window down.

Last bit would be a CF cover for the SC clock.

Everything looks amazing!

It took the whole past winter to get my wheel & dash trim made but it was worth the wait.

That wheel looks superb!

I wonder if he managed to remove the centre trim without breaking off any tabs however?
From experience I know that that is quasi-impossible

Or is the centre trim new?

Great looking steering wheel.

Curious, what do the red tassels hanging in your car signify?

You are correct , I noticed 2 broken tabs when we installed the wheel. My Indy shop used silicone in those area just for extra precautions. It’s been on solid since.

Good question lol

It’s my good luck charm, Asian superstitions. I have this set for a long while, transferred from my past 2 cars. 🙏

Beautiful!
Can you tell us about the new(?) crest in the steering wheel center cap? I'm looking to do the 991.2 wheel upgrade from 991.1 and want to go silver/black crests all around when I do.
