Not the Roja Red, but...
Picked this up from Josh a few weeks back. (THANKS JOSH!)
Finally got time to install it along with fsport springs/shocks.

1st Impressions:
- Feels great on the hands, the grooves on the leather part fits nice.
- The CF parts have grooves also built in
- Can't believe how LIGHT the steering wheel is compare to stock. (Well duh! Half the wheel is CF)
- The leather quality is superb, Josh told me it's Nappa Leather (Used in high end luxary and super cars)
- Only thing is... it might take a while to get use to the flat bottom, busting U-turns feels a bit weird.

Hey Josh,
I'm just checking in to see if the steering wheels have shipped yet? It's been about 2 1/2 weeks and I still havent received shipping information. Please advise
Thanks
Tony

Install was fairly easy but I highly recommend that you mark the steering wheel spline AND the black clockspring behind the wheel before you remove the stock wheel otherwise you could run into problems. I marked the spline and clock spring with yellow paint to use as a reference point when mounting the new wheel. Once you remove the stock wheel DO NOT MOVE THE CLOCKSPRING. 17mm socket to remove the steering wheel nut off the spline.
