Default I won!!!!

There was a give-away thread over on corvette forum for a new steering wheel for the vette. The drawing was last night.

This will be very cool with the Corbeau A4's. I'll have it made in all black - of course.

For liability issues and to keep the airbag, no one will produce an aftermarket/airbag wheel. They can't even modify the outer ring structure. This is a modified stock wheel. DSVettes.com is producing this. They do some amazing interior work also. The core charge is $200.

This is a PhotoShop that is similar to the wheel I ordered yesterday. Black leather and Alcantara in the grip area.

Should look very cool with the Corbeau A4's an a few other interior pieces.
