Recommend steering wheel trim? Non-sport
 

Hello!
Just got my 4.8 2007 --near loaded but did not have the sports pac. It was a hard choice for me but figured since I could not do the 20" rims (LOVE THEM) and it came with the comfort seats....it was "good enough". Lots of bells and whistles.
I just kinda am like "ho hum" about the steering wheel. I found a trimp part that BMW makes in wood--but it only fits the SPORT wheel, figures.

Can anybody recommend some sort of wrap I can add that wont look cheap? I have the heated steering wheel so would not want to impact the sides where I hold when driving. More of a wrap for the top/bottom just to jazz it up a bit? Found some on a random search but afraid they will look SUPER cheap. I may no be able to jazz it up...I suppose i can live with it! LOL

THanks

The cleanest looking way is to buy an OEM sports steering wheel on eBay but they're not cheap, and you'll need the airbag module because non-sports is different.

I would say give yourself 30 days and I bet you'll get used to it.

Thanks....just dont think I should do that....yet!....i think i did see several for 5 plus hundred...no airbag? dont want to spend all that cause then i will think
"for a few more....should have just waited for a sport pac".....

The wood trim was cheap....but wont fit. oh well....

I may forget in a bit as u said!
PLUS...i have the heated one. god only knows what that would run.....rather have new rims.....

You can get some knock off Style 215's in Ferric gray - they really stand out especially if you like the 214's.

Steering Wheel, not the 4 round things under the car :bustingup

No such thing.

And for wheels, recognize that you will not achieve OE quality for under $3-4, plus tires.

Yes...I will live with the rims....and I suppose you are correct with the fact any wrap will look cheap. I will "get over it". Cheers to you all who have the sweet sport steering wheel...and 20 rims...hell, even the 19 rims are nicer than the 18. Well, I did the "best I could" as far as options. I will love the packages/extras my car has...and next time--get sport if I miss it that much!!
:) THANKS

LOL - I know steering wheel was meant, but the claim was they loved the 20's but couldn't get them. Spending cash on aftermarket knocks off is an option, rather that putting money into steering wheel.

Steering wheel is a "no way" based on what I am finding the price runs. GOT the car!!! SO COOL!! LOVE all my options but will miss "sport". I suppose maybe I should have got it but...I bought used on a budget--and got a TON of other things that are very, very nice....so.......next time.
It is a great car. LOVE the 4.8 (which was an upgrade from what i was going to get from the start 3.0)....Glad I got the 4.8. Very.

I am not in love with the rims but....not sure I want to change them but I do agree.....new rims (maybe not BMW)...would be better than $600 for a steering wheel. Or more! Those suckers are $$$!

Thanks!

Pics soon!
