Default AGLA custom steering wheels for 996

This is my first post to all of you in Rennlist.With help from Kong in Rennlist- we got things going today for me to start being a sponsor today march 10th 2009 .So I am very happy to communicate what is it AGLA does.
AGLA customizes steering wheels and restores them also to oem specs .I have had clients world wide now over the last 20 years making variations of
996 wheels sort of the tech art type wheels but more available custom colors / thread / alcantara and most important it seems - padded wheels. Starting with the 996/boxster 3 spoke design that stared out 1999 I have had customers literally with a new wheel from the showroom floor ask me to pad the wheel to make it more usable.Many have found it to be too thin form the factory.AGLA adds in about 1/3 more in diameter -(3/4 inch circumference ) to the base of the wheel .Then we recover in all sorts of wild colors .Or just the base color in leather as it came .Alcantara has been quite popular since the GT2 models came out with that material .Some have asked me use a comination of both leather/alcantara also.Basically we can make a wheel looking like factory ,sewn up like factory to your particular specification.we have even salvage wood wheels and converted leather wheel to either wood or aluminum ,carbon fiber .So you can make your 996 wheel pretty much any way you wish.We do have an options list that is seen at a ebay store running curently with a number of pictures of custom AGLA 996 steering wheels at this link

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...1696&viewitem=


Also AGLA does make shiftboots /***** units that always wear out and we can recover emergency break handles.More of what we do can be found at our web site www.aglausa.com however i must state that i have been trying to update with alot of 996 items and it is not complete yet ,but the web site at least tells you something more about us as from this short introduction.

Also i will post some pictures here later of some recent 996 wheels I have made.

So thanks for stoping by and reading my post starting out introducing myself and AGLA to all of you at RENNLIST-THANKS

It's been long enough. Alan and I exchanged a few emails last month, during which time he continued to state that my replacement wheel was on its way. He's failed to respond since March 29.

With that said, I feel perfectly content calling Alan Gunn a rotten, lying, good-for-nothing, ne'er-do-well. No further proof is needed.

I sincerely hope that his brief stay on Rennlist cost him dearly. Now and in the future.


Andreas
