Nope - that piece on the RS cannot be ordered in deviated stitching. It's missing from the Order Guide and per an Exclusive rep. I spoke to, it has to do with the supplier, since the design is different from the regular GT3. I voiced my concern to him about this - how it would look weird and lo and behold, it does!!! 
for the parts that is NOT available from factory with Deviated Stitching.
Maybe, they can take out the original stitching,
and then hand stitched it back using the color your prefer. and preferably still using the original Alcantara/Leather material from the Porsche Factory, that came with the car.
so nothing is changed except the Stitching...
but I don't know whether the leather/alcantara will be stretch back to the original factory condition,
or some wrinkle is expected though...
I read this company's post here and They are also Rennlist SPONSOR:

Gear lever and handbrake - another known issue. Cannot be stitched since the 997.1 GT3s (again, unless specified in leather, which I don't think is possible with the 3s)... Stupid Porsche...

If MJones does not know no one knows.
Now I wonder if the bottom will be flat also....
For $1100.00 it should be..
I think that is probably Guards Red and a flash photograph......tends to wash the colour out.

Here's the fat wheel (standard GT3). Standard configuration - just thicker. The wheel in the RS production photo is same shape, i.e, not a special flat bottom.

I don't think this picture was taken in Stuttgart Germany. IMHO this car is at a dealer in North America someplace getting its PDI done. Trust me, the production line in Stuttgart is much cleaner and nicer than this shop!!!! The first 2 pics are in Stuttgart and the last 2 are in Leipzig.

Hi C4S/GT3,
May I ask you a question ?
I love to play with the Porsche GT3 car configurator,
and over there I always see several options that confuse me...
There are Thicker Steering Wheel Options...
Does it mean that the standard Alcantara Steering Wheel have standard and Thicker model ?
and how about the Real Leather Steering Wheel like yours,...
Does it come in standard and Thicker size too ?
if they do, is your Real Leather Steering Wheel the standard or the Thicker one ?
and Thanks for the nice picture above.

The thicker sport wheel (in smooth leather) on the 997.1 was nowhere near that chubby.
