CF C63 Steering Wheel
Finally it's all done by a professional steering wheel shop in Taiwan.

Cost me $800 to have this and the quality is excellent.

I also change the original fake leather to Nappa, and it's really feels good. Why OEM is not using Nappa?

Wow. That is amazing! Do you know if they can do more? Does your airbag work after you put that steering wheel in or is it just for show? Did you buy the OEM one from the dealership?

It appears to be the carbon fiber sheet wrapped over the original material.

Yes, the airbag can work, but I don't think you can change the steering wheel yourself, better take to MB dealer to get it done.

My car is a regular C280(C300 you called in US), but mine already has paddle shift function(EURO spec).
