WHERE to buy classic Brabus stuff?

Where can I find a Brabus steering wheel for my C43?
The Brabus steering wheel has the same design looks as the original C43 wheel but there is carbon fibre and the steering wheel is thicker and more solid than C43 original steering wheel!

I have been looking on Ebay, but nothing!
Where can I source old style Brabus gear for my AMG?

WOW yeah thats SLICK, however with the wood trim might look a bit out of place however it could also fall into that link of luxury and sports sedan crossover nitch! No worries anyhow, I will soon be offering Carbon Fiber inner pillars. Currently working on the front pillars that ride on each side of the windshield. Also planning on making CF covers for the rear pillars ect. Sooooooo many projects its insane. I also REALLY want to make a legitimate all in one carbon fiber exterior door pillars. This way they wont be like the cheap plates of carbon fiber that you stick on with tape over the stock pillar LIKE THE ONES ON EBAY. This will be an actual CF part that will allow you to remove your stock OEM metal exterior covers with the fake carbon fiber pattern on them and replace them with lightweight REAL carbon fiber that will sheen with that lovely 2x2 twill holographic reflection when the sun hits it! Lovely sight for all the drivers that watch you pass them .

what's my AMG brotha?

You know our European C43 's with fake carbon fibre interior, does look good for it's fake design!
And with this steering wheel it would look even more great!
I guess it's hard to find this steering wheel?
You start making these, you'll make tons of doe!

Thanks for the nice words bro, its hard starting up stuff like this, so much money invested in resins, gelcoat, supplies, sprayguns, fiber, labor ect. Hoping it will all pay off and more so benefit the W202 community as a whole to be able to outfit thier cars with quality custom stuff that no one else offers that wont look tacky like the crap on ebay.

hey bro!
I realized I misspelled the words: what's my AMG brotha
it should have been what's up my AMG brotha instead!

yeah if you can get many customers then you should go ahead and start your biniz, carbon fibre looks cool!
making those steering wheels with CF would look awesome!

are all stuff on Ebay crap or fake?
I mean if I buy new Bilstein shox from Ebay for 75 bux each?
are they knock off's or fake quality?
I'm getting scared to buy expensive auto parts from ebay!

keep up da good work
thanks

nahh ebay is good but there carbon fiber stuff is crap its cheap plates that you stick onto your car with double sided tape, NOT the actual part. So it kinda cheesy, looks cheasy up close and ulitmatley adds wieght to your car whilist making it look cheesy. But thanks man, just got back upstairs from starting my refinishing work on that tow hook cover...im COVERED in resin/fiberglass dust. Shower time!

Ben, I know I've seen the 30 dollar CF overlay crap, but I'm pretty sure I've also seen like 90 dollar real CF plates that replace the original ones.

Might be mistaken though, but I feel like I've seen it somewhere

now you just have to hire santa claus elves!
you instruct them to start manufactoring your CF steering wheels!
you da man the Manager!

Is it easy to wrap CF aroud the steering wheel?
It has to look prof3ssional.
If yes then try sourcing older style AMG steering wheels and testwrap with the CF covering around the wheel!
practice makes perfect!
I'll bet you'll get lots of bread when you sell those wheels!
