Looks great !
I found some 3D decals of the Porsche crest which look pretty nice.
We now give one for free with each Raid steering wheel.
I will send you one by mail.

Yup, bought one a while back from Gert, I really like the 340mm wheels...the car feels quite a bit different. The only downside is you get partial blockage of the instruments.....but its not a big deal.

Enjoy!

Cheers,

Mike

I have a Techart SW if anyone is interested..
I agree it does hide the instruments a little but not a big problem. Steering is more sensitive and quick.

I think I prefer the older version Silberpfeil (since I am not into perforated leather) with the easily removable Raid /FVD label, but Atiwe probably figured that out. Wished I had pulled the trigger on one.

that's why the gauges can be rotated I've had my rotated for so long, I get in other Porsche's and wonder what's wrong with them.

You will love it. I really enjoy mine. It changed the car for the better. See my avatar.

The new Silberpfeil is available in smooth and perforated leahter.
There are still some stock of "old" steering wheels at Raid/Atiwe.

I also ordered one of these from Gert, and love it. It was great on the track, and gives me a little more room to work the pedals with my long legs. Two thumbs up!
