Default A lil sumpn' from JPM Coachworks

I contacted Joe from JPM Coachworks a while ago about a custom VGS-type steering wheel. I am so glad I did. The man is an artist in every sense of the word. It looked great in the pictures he emailed me but looked so much better in person. If anyone needs any upholstery done, JPM is the company to contact. They will not quit until you're satisfied.

I couldn't afford to drop $800 or more on a VGS wheel as much as I would've like to, I just couldn't. So I decided to give it a go and hack and weld a stock one to suit my needs. I know some people are a little wary of cutting and welding a steering wheel but trust me, it's not going anywhere .I

I'm gonna see if I can get this swapped tonight or tomorrow on my own but for now, here's a little teaser.

Very interested in the advantages in this wheel compared to the stock one? Is it just the shape? Again not trying to be rude, really interested.

D shape = more clearance to get in and out of the car esp on race car with roll cage and non moving bucket seat


looks great, now put it on and post some pic
