I had it custom made by my friend in Poland.

Feel free to email him for pricing, he is very busy so u gotta be patient for the final product.

He is very popular in the AMG forum. He did my complete interior in CF & the good thing is he doesn't need ur oem parts as core.

lsturbointeg · 05-22-2015, 04:31 PM

So u send ur steering wheel off and u can't drive ur car until it's done?

No, he sources a used steering wheel (or any parts u need to CF) in Europe & modified it in CF.

U don't need to ship anything to him.
