Socal GarageWorks Carbon Fiber Steering wheel

[Baddie]

Sick wheel. Hey is the button trim one piece with the bottom carbon?

No

 

[Baddie]

If anyone else has installed one of these would love to see how you optioned it. These things look absolutely sick! My problem atm is I cant decide carbon, forged carbon, full leather. Maybe I'll install all 3, can glue one on the passenger side and .....okay I need to settle down

forged carbon with optional button part also made of forged carbon. Optional Led shiftpoint lights and optional information window in the 12 o'clock position. Also opted to keep my stock steering wheel which I sold for $350

What does the information window show?

What does the information window show?

rpm's, voltage, water temperature, fuel percentage, and engine use percentage like in the bugatti veyron.

If anyone was thinking about one of these their tax days sale is habbening now. I dropped one in the cart with trim, and no core exchange. $715 (worked out to $88 off)

I also found these guys

They offer a matte carbon which looks pretty good.

Wheel ordered. Thru socalgarageworks. Jaliscos price was crazy good but he said no fiesta wheels in stock that was the end of the correspondence. Socal was very helpful and let me add a few small requests to the notes which they said they could do for me. Photos once I have wheel. I asked about the red buttons socal rep said he thought it might be a fluke. I asked him to include the fluke with my purchase if possible

Nice! Glad to hear you finally purchased one! Can't wait to see how it turns out. How did you option it out?

It was tough but I went standard carbon/black perforated leather, Black top stripe with button trim.
I asked via email if they could use silver instead of grey stitch and they said no prob just put it in notes. Splitting hairs with that one. I also asked for a red oem style ST logo on the bottom center of wheel to add a little pop. Example

Already wondering if you could somehow dye the airbag face a deeper black. If I was a woman my barbies would be over accessorized....I know

 

[Djkid1456]

That's going to be a sweet piece when it's done! And as far as the airbag, I'm sure it's definitely possible! Look into it and see what you find! Write up a post about it after.

Gentleman! We have another contender in the market for a pretty reasonable price!

This company also has other carbon parts for our car which I think is great.

Oh boy, you can have the top portion flat?? F1/GT style wheel here i come!

Heads up, if y'all are wondering why so many companies are popping up is due to Chinese production. Which are really good and comparable to the companies state side. Most of these probably come from the same shop. Could also find them on Aliexpress. Haven't searched for the FiST but the same thing is happening on other platforms like for my b6 A4 and GR Supra. I'm glad there's companies that are affordable.

Tomorrow is day 56 aka 8 weeks since I ordered my socal wheel. Was hoping it would ship sooner. Maybe its trapped on in the Suarez canal....

Same here. I sent an inquiry and was told, "order is done and should ship this week." Still waiting on the tracking number.

I emailed them too. Was told the exact same thing. That was 3 or 4 days ago though. No tracking either yet.

I received mine today. But unlike the sample on the website, the perforate leather section at the 3 and 9 o'clock positions were unfinished. How did yours turn out?

That's strange. Mine came all the way up. You can even see it in my photo if the first post if you look close enough. Maybe reach out to them and see what they say? I'm curious to know.

I noticed 2 wheels another posted on here and when checking the link for carbonplug (a few posts up) they appear to stitch em up like that too. I still havent received tracking or a wheel though.
