thanks frank for the actual post of your steering wheel. I am actually getting mine rewrapped, just not sure to go with which design. I'm torn between a all leather with the perf and smooth leather combo, perf leather and solid piano black wood(I dont have wood trimming so I'm not sure how it will look), leather and alcantara a la F1 Medical wheel.

correction: it's alcantara, not suede. It's done for $250.

seems like the majority of you out there like the F1 Medical wheel best.
We'll just have to wait and see what happens next.
