Default Dallas Custom Steering Wheel

Wanted to give props to Don Le at Dallas Custom Steering Wheel. He did a factory 996 steering wheel for me in Black Alcantara and red stitch, at an extremely reasonable price. Also had great communication from him; he emailed photos of the wheel as soon as he was finished...that man knows the meaning of customer service!

Agreed. I had Don do all of my Alcantara work in my C4S, and will likely have him do more in the GT3. Top shelf in every respect.

Quick question for you guys. Which color of alcantara did you go with? Black or charcoal? I'm send some stuff to Don this week and want my parts to match my headliner. Charcoal seems to be too light to match but I'm not sure. Can anyone confirm what color the headliner is? Thanks!

Since it's been about year I thought I'd ask about the durability of the Alcantara. How has it held up?

Mine still looks new like the photo above, but I do not drive her as a daily driver.
I am very pleased with how this steering wheel turned out and how it's holding up. Well worth the money spent.
