Everyone's setups are coming along great! Whereas the latest thing I've done is...wash it. It was unbelievable the dirt that came off. Then it rained a little. Of course.

Lol mine was also a few mm off on one side also. Which size 3m tape did you get? I may end up re-doing it in the future. Looks great btw
thanks bro I went with .75in width and fits perfect. idk if it's the same for EVS though.. I feel like its the same thing just rebranded haha

That sterring wheel is a work of art . Beautiful piece .
Agreed, the artist certainly captured the circa 2017-2019th genreā€™ of Courbonā€ Fabergeā€™ epithelial era emphasizing the significance of Monetā€™ in this pricey piece.

I wonder how long itā€™ll be until it is updated by artiste Monsuer- Moutoā€™ to the more abstract futuristic post-teen 20+ era instead with Alcantara velveteen motif?

Looking at this, I canā€™t help but shed a tear for Lisa Monaā€™ in pun pain.

Haven't done anything yet, but this did drop at my house today.

Very nice. I opted for all black. That is going on tomorrow. I'm comfy with the mechanical aspect but not crazy about the airbag part so I'm gonna pay someone :)

Today, I did the Mishimoto catch can. Pro tip. They don't mention it but you can get the hoses on without effort if you spray a little window cleaner on the ends. The alcohol will dry quickly. Also, pay attention to the hose clamps. Two are larger and go on the catch can ends.

Installation is simple. I did use power tools which does make the job easier. I did get the red bracket instead of the black. I think it looks pretty good!

I personally don't mind the air bag, it screws in and is plug and play. What I do mind is freezing my hands off in 30 degree weather :p I'll probably have someone install it as well, maybe by the end of the week. I was actually going to opt for full black (but keep the red noon-marker) until I saw the Buddy Club wheel with a similar design. Honestly, I would have picked up the Buddy Club one if it were matted CF. The wheel was a little thicker than I thought it would be, but honestly can't wait to get it installed.

I bought a couple of new in the box OEM Honda FK8 steering wheels I found super cheap. Apparently these are being discontinued? Great to keep wear items like this around if you're in it for the long haul like I plan to be.:thumbsup:

Who makes that wheel? I love the look of the dry carbon!
I got it from IS_Autogroup (Import Spec Autogroup, same company as @ian408) on Instagram. They don't have a website yet, so you'd have to DM them on there. They send you payment through PayPal. Took them about 6-7 weeks to get my wheel to me (note I ordered early December; Christmas is a thing).
