Did they also refurb the arms on the wheel? If so, how did it turn out?

Not sure you'd want the m steering to be thicker unless you have giant hands! Personally i like the strip.

Easty, what colour Alcantara is that...that's exactly what I'm looking for! My car is Ruby Black so could have a dark red stripe to bring it together.

It's just black Alcantara and it's standard thickness. You definitely wouldn't want it thicker. Another option for the TDC stripe would be to have just coloured stitching instead of a solid colour. I had a new Porsche Cayman S last year for the weekend and it had a grey alcantara wheel with a slightly lighter grey TDC stripe outline stiched. It looked lovely and was very subtle.

No the arms weren't refurbed, only the actual wheel itself.

Forget the stripe - looks goofy. Go for a drag chute instead.....

Do what feels right for you buddy
Depends more upon colour and if well done.
Irony as M cars are designed as track cars that are able to be used on the road
Hence not mpas.
So go for it as it's, it's pedigree

No stripe for me. My wheel will be going to Royals in two weeks.

No from me. It's not a race car or a supercar.

Speak for yourself, mine is a track car.

Go the stripe

Out of curiosity how much does it cost to have your steering wheel refurbed?

That also looks great. Are they new covers on the arms too?

Thanks! No, refurbished. Took the old rubbery guck off & painted matt black.
