New M3 SMG steering wheel and 4.8 exhaust

Thought this was sold and I packed it up for shipping. Waited many days and got no payment on this so I am relisting this for sale and dropping the price to move it. It's already packed up and just need to change the shipping address. Will ship out fedex ground and would prefer to ship within the USA. Local pickup in NJ also available. $475 shipped or $450 local pickup

On a separate note, I also have a new 4.8 exhaust from the cat back- brand new never installed. These are the dual oval exhaust. Would only prefer local pickup in NJ for this. The picture below shows the 4.8 exhaust in its full cat back form. $1025 includes both brand new 4.8 exhausts...local pickup

Here is what is looks like installed in an X5:

Here are the actual pictures of the wheel. There is one stiching that has come out and can be glued back into place.

Pictures of the 4.8 exhaust "cat back" vs. 4.4 exhaust... which I borrowed from another X5 member. The deep growl and rumble you get on WOT, not to mention the looks is priceless.

I just bought the same wheel without the paddles for 250$ shipped...and the paddles are useless unless you have the setup for it...plus the exhaust is wayyy over priced...id buy it but not nearly at that price..

obviously you havent experienced the joy of paddle shifting my friend

Now as for the 4.8is exhaust . I did the same retrofit look on my 4.4 and I love it. while no catback exhaust will give any real HP gains but the look and sound is just right for me ..not too loud but looks great

Was not sure if I was going to keep the BMW. However, I ended up selling my moddified lexus faster than I expected. Wife likes the X5 and its the safer car and will now become my daily driver. I plan on revisiting the mods on it. This SMG wheel has been sold. The exhaust is still available and has been reduced to $950 pick up in NJ or $1050 shipped. If it does not sell, than I will probably install it. I really like the sound of the race exhaust from Eisenmann and Dinan but do not like their prices.

I have some new SMG wheels on order which I plan on installing as well as some Dinan parts and angel eyes.
