Default XMAS Came early! - APSIS steering Wheel has arrived!

I don't have it all assembled yet (airbag cover and jake center cap just lying in place) but my steering is complete. I love the look and the quality is out of this world! Thanks Jersey!

It will match my interior perfectly with the Jake logo that I had put on my Daytona Seats.

I will install everything into the car shortly.

I am sure I will get some questions on how much it costs (it was a lot) but I don't really know. Bought the wheel from a show and the airbag cover and carbon center at different times...plus the core charges that I will get reimbursed when I send my stock parts back etc.

Anyhow..whatever it ends up costing me, it was worth it. Thes pictures don't do it justice. This steering wheel makes my car feel faster too.

That is one sweet Steering wheel! I would say at least a 5 HP gain!

I agree on the performance - it's probably from weight savings though.

Thanks guys!

It looks so much better in person too.

Can't wait to get the wheel installed.

I have heard it is going to help with my 60' ft times too. 1.25 here I come!

Doesn't look like you have bad taste yourself! Nice vette!
