I installed the wheel and added the photos to the first original post. I drove the Boxster S today, it has a 3-Spoke wheel. What a difference. The Boxster's wheel feels very thin. SOOOOOOO.... I boxed up a three spoke wheel and sent it off to Cars Dream in Poland. Same configuration as the four spoke but with red stitching. I'll post some photos in about 7 weeks when I get it back.

I want one of these...anyone have a spare steering wheel to lend me so I can part with mine for a couple of months? (I tried "spline steering" once but it did not work too well)

There are alot of companies in states that can do quality job for about the same cost (total cost you paid with shipping charge) and you can get it within a week or so. Why has to wait months for it?
Very nice wheel though.

The first one come to my mind is AGLA.....oh wait, are they still exist? Terrible of course....For real, you can count quality on Paul Champange, Dallas Custom Wheel, Classic 9 leather shop and many more...

Steering wheel looks great! I was going to go for the 3 spoke but now I think I'll just a stock one recovered like yours. Not sure what color stitching though. My car is black and tan interior.

I emailed Cars Dreams yesterday that I shipped them the 3-spoke wheel. I asked that they do the same work that they did on the 4-spoke wheel but to use red stitching.
They emailed back that the cost for the 3 spoke is $62.54 cheaper. They'll charge $215.42 which includes shipping. USPS charged me $45 for shipping so this one will be $260. So, either 4 spoke wheels are $70 more to do, or they give you a discount for the second order. Either way, it was well worth it.
They let you pay through PayPal which make it very easy with the USD to Euro conversion.
Again, thanks ilko.
