Default Steering wheels

I know this has been done before, but the options and pics that came of it before were very limited and in my opinion not very sporty. Here it goes. What is a cool replacement for the otherwise ugly C4 steering wheels...and d**n the airbag. I've got a 93.
Thanks for any and all replies.

Although the stock well is not very aesthetic by todays standards,

It does offer an unobstructed view of the instruments.

I too would like another design that stays inside the Corvette boundaries,
and not into the ricer designs........

I had the same problem with my '91 and because there were no after market wheels available here in Finland, I decided to modify the original.

This is where I started:



This is where it ended:

Nice work. Had not thought of modifing a steering wheel. I think this might be a doable project. If I come up with a design I will share. The draw back of course if you get radical you have to do away with the airbag. I can or not live with that. depends on the luck of the draw...uh.
