Amazing work of art. I don't wanna know the price.
That alcantara looks really soft and grippy.

Pertplus

It was about $10, give or take...oh, and plus tax.

Mort

^^^^ Haha...very nice, like the grey top center ring for a street car.

MJ50

nice!
make sure to wash hands after eating french fries...

MONEY!!! Thats going to look amazing installed. I assume you have CF trim to match?

Pertplus

Naw, no CF trim, and havent decided if I want to do that yet. I kinda feel like I could do the steering wheel and paddles CF and not the other parts and it look fine as opposed to vice versa. As far as spending the money on these products, I felt it was better spent for a sick *** steering wheel than the trim, but in a perfect world, I might deck it all out in CF.

Pertplus

Ok, screw you obsidian..you happy now, I bought the CF interior set. God, I hate modding, and now all I could think about was matching up the wheel with the interior. Thanks for putting that thought into my head!!!!

tgoss

So beautiful :drool:

Mort

Such restraint.....LOL, I can relate.

Don't worry it is going to look great!

Girard@ACGautomotive

Gorgeous!

MA Carbon has top notch products. the weave is always on point. We are a dealer for them so you are welcome to inquire about the pricing!

Damn I can't get over that nice stiching. Looks great. Get ready to have a twin in about 5 months burning the highways of San Diego. Of course yours is modded to the T, but you can look over and remember the good ol stock days...

Pertplus

I love seeing other C63s....however, so far I'm the only modded one (besides my friend who totaled his last year on the 5 freeway) Ive seen driving around down here in SD. Even stock our cars look beastly. At some point I really have to stop modding. Holy geebus.

AMG-010

I found this which seems like a good price. Not carbon fibre though and not as nice as Pertplus.

Haha. Glad i could help. Youll be much happier. Think about it, you'll be driving with that gorgeous steering wheel, and comparing your stock trim to it. It would have irked you till you caved in anyway.

Once you wrote it, I knew I wouldnt be happy with wood paneling and trim and a CF steering wheel.

Sometimes it takes another person pointing out the obvious!

Amazing piece. Those CF shift paddles look sick.
I didn't know MACarbon was from Belgium.

slownrusty

Damn...that is money!

Shellbmb

I'd like to hear how difficult a mod this is to do on your own. I recall seeing a video somewhere on how to remove the wheel.

Roswell

Pertplus, your steering wheel is amazing!! I love your sig too: "No Mom, my car is completely stock." ... I got to tell that to my mom too everytime she sees my car... LOL!

Mort

Beautiful wheel and love the CF paddle shifters.

Congrats you have terrific mods.

Thanks everyone for the kind words. I was very happy with how Pertplus's wheel turned out. The paddles complete it I think. I can;t wait to see it installed.


A few points:

• The wheel is suede not alcantara. Yes, Pert should avoid eating french fries before driving. But the suede wears well and is so much better feeling than alcantara.
• We pay special attention to the weave and how it plays across the wheel itself and in combination with the rest of the parts in the interior. The W204 is fairly easy. An Audi R8 in contrast, has things going in every direction due to their stock carbon parts. Notice the UP paddle does not match the rest of the wheel - but "looks" right.
• MAcarbon has two workshops where we make our parts. One is in Liege, Belgium and the other in Montreal Canada. Our "headquarters" is in Belmont, California near San Francisco where we do sales, marketing, inventory, QA etc. Both workshops are part of MAcarbon. So our parts are made "In House". We just have a big house! We don't just slap our name on things made by others in cheap labor locations.
• Pricing depends on the wheel configuration. You can play with our online configurator here: http://www.macarbon.com/wheel_config...M0c0,M0c2,M1c6

Thanks again and we'll be happy to help anyone with CF for their C63 or any other Mercedes.
