new JCW Pro interior finished

Got the steering wheel installed this morning. Took about 1/2 hour. The gear shift and brake handle took less than 10 minutes. In my opinion, they look and feel great.

That looks freaking amazing! And it all matches the seats... perfection.

So sexy, making me want so bad. Hopefully US dealers will have parts available soon. Will probably order in a few months either way. Mind sharing what it cost for all 3 cost?

I'm out of pocket right at $1,000, that's with shipping, install, and the exchange rate. I asked my local parts guy about these, and the retail was going to be more here, but he said he didn't know what the ultimate price would be. I'm very pleased with the service I've received from - https://www.lohen.co.uk/ - I got my Quaife LSD from them a couple of years ago, and they really provide excellent customer service. You order one day, and your parts get shipped the next day with 3-day service to the states. My local parts guy told me the parts would be more, and it would take 3 weeks to a month out of Germany.

As an aside, I took the JCW out for a little longer drive today, and the wheel and shifter are fantastic.

A G for a shiftknob and parking brake handle? And people thought I was nuts for spending $1600 on an intake.

Carbon fiber and Alcantarashifter, parking brake handle, and steering wheel. The steering wheel being the most expensive item.

Like he said, that's all 3 so not crazy. Steering wheels can go for 800+ alone. And 1600 for intake, I think that's crazy, but almost did it anyway. Then they came out with the plastic version same performance at almost half the price (which many would still consider ridiculous). And why I love these is you experience them everytime you drive.

Ah, $1000 for the shift ****, handle and wheel isn't bad. That's actually pretty good. Most wheels I've been looking at are around $1000 themselves.

Its seems you got a pretty big discount with Lohen because the 3 items on their website add up to 945GBP = $1165 USA + shipping + installation. I am wondering how you can close everything for $1000.

No VAT since I'm in US. And, after further review of the 2 invoices after the exchange rate - I'm out $1,100 after delivery and install. So, I was off $100 in my post above.

Yeah, that's why I asked the other guy if he remembered to remove VAT since we don't pay that here in the States. Cost for those three parts should be 779.16 GBP going by Lohen's own listed prices. That's $958 US plus the cost of shipping.

Do you have your original shifter and would like to sell it? I am looking for a JCW shifter to see if I can fit it in my R55.

If you want to sell it and it is this one let me know!: https://www.ecstuning.com/b-genuine-...d/25118618524/
