Default ***Custom*** Flat top/bottom steering wheel

We had a customer that wanted something a bit different and wanted a flat top and bottom steering wheel. It came out great in my opinion. What do y'all think?

Price includes core. You can send your wheel in and save 300 off the price listed.

I do love these wheels I want one and agree they are a one of a kind item. However i have to agree, they are a bit pricey.

At $699 after the core refund I would consider it in two tone. How much extra do you charge for the Kalahari color?

Have done any with Brownstone in it? Just curious. I'd love to see what that looks like.


Cheers.

Wow Andrew-that looks fantastic!



Guys, I bought my flat bottom steering wheel from Andrew. The quality is great and the price is the lowest on the market now.


I had mine done "straight" because of my interior, which is 3LT/Black.
