OEM accessory wood steering wheel 04-06

Got my wheel installed. found it on ebay for about $400 shipped

I personally like the woodgrain (I know a lot of people DONT), and I couldnt find any pics on here thru search, so I thought Id share. sorry, they are just cell pics. Lemme know what you woodgrain fans think!

My summary, is I like it, but not worth the money IMO. I thought it would be a lil more like my wifes cadillac wheel, or a lexus wheel... its not! Just inlays of the fake wood thats thru out the car. prolly just shoulda kept my loot, or went with an aspec! lol but it is different!

Dino- I have it as well in my 05. I paid about 200 in the Black Market for it. For the money I paid for it, I am happy.

Looks nice.

I'm contemplating getting the carbon fiber wheel, but I just can't justify the $400 price tag.

I like! If I ever get a new steering wheel, it will be the A-Spec one.

like you said, there are people that like wood grain and there are people that don't. I hate that wood grain actually. Sorry man but that's just not my thing. I think that stock wheel looks much better.

that wood looks too fake or something. makes the car look cheep

I'm a fan of the wood and you'll be in love with it in a month or so (once you've gotten over the price tag). The money is history, so don't dwell... just enjoy the smoothness.

I like it! Looks good with your interior. I'm dreaming of an A-Spec or carbon fiber steering wheel to go along with my interior.
