Hi all,



I'm looking into changing the steering wheel to an aftermarket one.

Currently checking out OMP Corsica (superleggera), basically same deep dish one as from member Porker - anyone has better ideas?


Cheers!

Lefty

I'll post up a picture of my OMP Corsica + SMG paddles as an example. I've no idea who's done the installation, but it's neatly done!

Not one for the OEM fraternity! As you said each to their own, not many takers here though. M3 Race car perhaps, but not the best look for a CSL, IMO?:thumbs:

Thanks Neil. Seems a good price! Will only need the hub then.


I'm an oem-nut as well btw! Only thing is the feel of the stock wheel is a bit to thick for me somehow, difficult to explain. I've driven Porker's CSL a few times and it certainly feels better for me.

Know the feeling, there's thick and there's ever so sightly too thick! :hahaha:

Might just be the covering in Asian/Irish that changes the feel of the wheel over the more traditional Leather rimed M sport wheel, which is the daily drive.
But the CSL wheel does feel thicker, we can't all have bricklayers hands: massive and devoid of any sense of feeling.
I would have thought that you would have finely tuned digits too Matt, given your profession :hahaha:

Pressing the shutter button is the easy part of Pro. Photography :smokin: and you don't need little Lady Hands :gayfight: to do it with.

More fuel for the fire - Mine is 'Kyosho' and remains completely devoid of yellow gloop! :whistle:
Now if 'Doubting Thomas' (new member) cares to check his legendary data-base he should find all relevant/pertinent details appertaining to said vehicle in there, he's probably forgotten, doesn't time fly when you're having fun, a 'Senior' moment perhaps, the first sign of something?:thumbs: 'Water off a ducks back' springs to mind! Come back SY all is forgiven :hahaha:

Even easier, a can of beer on the dash or engine bay. If no beer available use a loaf of bread or pack of crisps.

Neil we do not mind if you have or do not have a csl we just want to see it.
