About LinkBacksI just purchased, and had this steering wheel installed. There are many beautiful carbon fiber steering wheels now available, but I really like the lines and shape of this one, particularly for the price which less than half of some of the ones I've seen. The price of these steering wheels is all relative of course, but relative to the others, this one is very reasonable. These can be even less if you deal with them directly (at least it was for me).

Re: DCT Motorsports Carbon Fiber Steering Wheel
How much are we talking about?
Looks very aggressive, by the way.

Re: DCT Motorsports Carbon Fiber Steering Wheel
I put up a link to vivid racing. They currently have it for $1599. I have seen it on ebay by DCT as low as $1550 (as I recall when I first started looking), but they currently have it for $1675. I went down to there and brokered a deal with them for $1350, installed, but they wanted to use it for some of their website photos so that may have been a onetime deal.

Re: DCT Motorsports Carbon Fiber Steering Wheel
The Price for the PPI steering wheel might exceed 3,000.00 U.S. currently.

Yeah I sort of regret getting it, but its too late Originally Posted by harrison

. It is thicker than I thought it would be. It is actually silver, and looks better in person, but if I had to do it over again, I would have not had it put in.

Re: DCT Motorsports Carbon Fiber Steering Wheel
I really like the look of that wheel, especially the grip area. I wouldn't have put that strip in.

Re: DCT Motorsports Carbon Fiber Steering Wheel
Click here for DCT Motorsports' website.
Click here for Vivid Racing's website, and
clickhere for one of their Ebay ads.
They may sell elsewhere, but this is where I found them in searches.
The core charges vary. DCT actually bought a new wheel from Audi for $668. If you would like to keep your OEM steering wheel, one thought I had was to purchase one from Fortitude-oooohere for about $470, the Hungarian Ebay seller whom many buy their carbon fiber mirrors from.2009 Silver/Black V10 MT; De-Chromed; Carbon Fiber Exterior Package, Lighted CF Sills, CF Sideblades, CF Engine Trim, CF Steering Wheel, CF Mirrors, CF Door Handles and CF Interior Inlays; Enhanced Leather; Alcantara Headliner; Black Optic Grille; Meisterschaft GT Racing Titanium Exhaust; APR ECU Remap; Sprintbooster; H&R Lowered; Clear bra; and HRE P43s
