Amazing craftsmanship , I just purchased this wheel. Can't wait to see it in person.
All Johns work is a cut above his competitors, it's like art.

Yes, I have one on my car. I went with a red pad with red stitching but this one looks great too.

Still curious if there was any testing done on the airbag after wrapping it in leather. It looks freaking amazing but not willing to ditch the life saving airbag for some leather and stitching.

John, can you pm me a price for one with blue stitching and alcantara where the red is. Also with the carbon trim instead of the silver.
Thanks

Does Caravaggio do older vettes too?
Caravaggio does stunning leather work. Have his seat and steering wheel. Just love these pieces.





Crappy cell pic of seat - so comfortable and don't slide around anymore at the track.

Bump... What are the thoughts on the airbag still being able to deploy with the leather hornpad?

Absolutely love the look, but wouldn't want to give up that safety feature!

Thanks!

It is designed to deploy just fine!! The leather is skewed and deploys no problem!!

Hi John, have you done much with Visors ? Thinking of Black leather, maybe a little red leather and red stitching to go with the steering I bought awhile back. It's the red and Black wheel like one shown in this thread.
Thanks,
JIM
