Default Ace Custom Steering

Hi my name is Mike Kirby from Ace Custom Steering . I am the Sales / Marketing Mgr. for Ace. We will be at the 30 th annual homecoming displaying our products. We also have approx. 30 c-6 steering wheels ready for purchase at the show. The show special is if you buy a wheel that is in stock at the show we will install it for free here at the show. Also if you order a wheel the c-6 cores will be discounted for you, if you wish to keep your original c-6 steering wheel.
Ace has a lot of products availible for the c-5 and c-6. We offer c-5 rewraps which can be a oem replacement style or personizled to match any Gm interior or exterior colors for your steering wheels. Check us out!

Thanks,
Mike Kirby

You've got some very nice looking wheels at great prices.
Please post some more pictures of C6 steering wheels on Corvette Forum.
You're website only has a few.
Thanks!

Quick question Mike: Will you re-wrap an 05 c6 wheel as well if it's sent out to you or do you offer anything for an 05 steering wheel? If I missed anything I apologize.

No problem . yes we can re-wrap the 4 spoke early c-6. The issue is the core availibility . If you can do without your wheel i will cordinate with the plant to reduce timing. normally on this activity 7- 10 days. Also on most of our products we try to ship in 3 to 5 days.
Thanks Mike

Thanks for the info. I can do without the wheel for sure since the vette is not my daily driver. I want to enjoy the car for summer but will definitely be in touch after the summer season for a nice wrap with perforated leather and red stitching.

Your web site does not list the option of white thread which is what is used on the seats of my C6 interior. Any chance of getting the plant to add this as an option? Also can't make it to the 30th Annual homecoming this weekend. Anybody know how much a typical Chevy dealer would charge to swap the steering wheels? Thanks.

Super prices, I paid almost twice for a used wheel from a forum vendor and these look just as good.

just a thought Mike. it would be a good advertising tool to have your website url, email add and phone number(s) on your CF profile page. some may not recall where you posted, but they may search your avatar\/name.

Talked to Mike at Homecoming today. While he's not as cute as the girls in pink tops on his website, he does have a good looking wheel at a great price.

The GM dealerships show .6 to .7 hours for change out. Should be between 75-90 dollars.
The white thread, i will talk to Charlie and post back.
Thanks
