Anyone seen these beefy steering wheels the russians make for our cars? They look oem quality, hefty pricetag $500 plus shipping. Not sure if i can justify that, but it would be nice to have.

This looks awesome!!! I want one :)
I did wrap my steering wheel and made it look 10 times better. Took 5 hours of tedious work but it was worth it.

Have you seen this one? I am not sure if it would look cool or be over the top.

If you are looking for a brand new oem replacement. Search ebay for a 2012ish maxima or juke steering wheel, they are identical to the fx. I paid $99 to the door for a brand new in the plastic still) oem wheel.
 
I purchased my kit from amazon also, the manufacturer was xuji. They sell the kits on ebay as well.

Prior to purchasing I did a lot of researching and found this information below that really made me seriously question the source from where I was ordering. I ultimately purchased from amazon which had alot of reviews.

"Some things to consider: Most of those covers from China are made with PU (poly urethane) leather. They are made with the cheapest (bottom part) of the leather hide then coated with a couple layers of poly urethane (in China the chemical is unregulated ) All PU covers being sold in Cal. have to include the risk of cancer warning, saying to wash your hands after contact. "

Found this information over at Leather steering wheel cover? - Drive Accord Honda Forums

Nice work on the steering wheel wrap!

Not sure about this one! I like the one (Ashephillis) posted. Goes better with the luxury feel of the inside of the car. Carbon fiber stuff might be an overkill!

That is a badass wheel! Where did you get that?
