CF Steering Wheel

Hi all. My first post here.

Not sure if I saw a post in this site about customizing steering wheels with carbon fiber on the actual wheel, not just inserts. Just saw an SL55 with customized cf steering wheel this weekend that sparked my interest. I really liked the feel of it. Can somebody point me to the right direction? I don't recall the name of the vendor.

Thanks in advance.
Moe

I don't think it's the JCW wheel. Custom job, I believe.

Who did the headliner? I have wanted to redo mine in Vinyl for sometime now. I remember a place in Westminster that did custom interior work, but I forgot the name of it.

You would have to contact Peter at M7, he had the interior work done.
I don't know the name of the shop that did the work.
They are also the ones that did the leather on the seats, door panels, shift boot & E brake boot.
