What do you guys think about this steering wheel?

So I came across this from S. Korea. I asked if it'll fit a M-sport/Sport setup and they said 'I think so'....which is kind of iffy. It's pretty cheap for what it is. Is there a way to tell if this is indeed for M-sport? I punched in the numbers in the pics and came across nothing. Also, the pic of the rear side is strange because I don't see a hole at the bottom to insert your screwdriver to move the attachment clips.

I don't believe this wheel came from an M Sport. In the photo, the one number does indicate the VIN of the car, which in this case is C655554. You can check the options out at bmwvin.com as I did if you would like to see for yourself.

The only thing I don't like from an aesthetics view is the wrinkles in the perforated leather. ndinh... just pay an extra $250 for the Ledermanz... at least it's OEM. I can't confirm the one you posted tho?

Dude, you're throwing money at that car like it's a stripper at Spearmint Rhino. That exhaust alone was a huge buy. Just the skirts alone are cheap though. Funny how my other hobbies costs in the hundreds and when you talk about bimmers, you're talking thousands like it's nothing. I'm in the same boat with the wife + we have a 1.5 yr old so I got to slow it down on the modding.

Haha! I think because I'll tell her how much it would be brand new but tell her what a deal I found and she's like go for it! Back in our import days we both had show cars so she understands it cost money when your car is your hobby.
