Default Another DSV Exclusive DStyle Carbon Steering Wheel (Pictures Inside)

Hello,

We just finished a Premium DBottom Carbon Fiber sides steering wheel. We now have 3 options available in Carbon Fiber. It could be carbon top only, carbon top and bottom, and carbon sides. Here is the first one that was just finished. This wheel is going to be at display at Bloomington Gold. We are going to be inside the megacenter. Here are the pictures.

Pretty damn cool! I like how the bottom is squared off and the sides coming down slowly get square.

NOW, when is the 05' version coming out??????????

We are going to work on the 05 after we finish all the pending orders which should be about 2 weeks from now. These wheels do take a lot of time to make since they are all handcrafted.

Don't suppose you'll come out with one of these for the C5? How much do these run?

I totally understand Gerardo. I would never want you to compromise quality. But I didn't want you to forget about us 05' guys either.

In fact, I should be receiving my DSV console lid and e-brake handle from Top Flight tomorrow!

Gerardo:

What is the price of that exact same steering wheel as shown; including the carbon fiber spoke caps? A PM is fine.

The squared off D bottom is the finest I've seen!

The bottom of this wheel seems flater than the standard D-Type wheels you made for me.

Is it illusion or is there more material removed from this wheel??

We were able to fit it differently in the DPremium

Im interested in getting one of you're dstyle steering wheels with carbon kevlar hybrid blue ( just unsure if i want it on the top and bottom or on the sides right now)

If the members entertained you with a group buy purchase would you lower the price a tad ?

if you did i would have no problem being on the bottom of the list to get mine

BTW very very nice work.

The pictures in your post seem to illustrate a wheel with carbon sides plus spoke caps. To get both of these features on one wheel would one have to pay $899.00 plus $249.00, or $1148 plus core? Sorry that I'm a little dense about understanding the charges quoted.

Any plans for a center section that would cover the air bag that would match the wheel?

I'm sure you've answered this before,but can you match the 'Faux" factory carbon fiber?

And lastly,when will you return from the show? I want to order,but can wait until you get back & settled back into business as usual.
