Done!!! Did the stitching different from the way it comes from the factory. I don't like the stitch Infiniti uses. So did it this way. Used silver thread to accent the silver trim in the car... I am working on getting a wheel or 2 to use as swaps so people don't have to mail them in and wait.

Very clean job! Although i am not feeling the flat out bottom, but the CF is amazing.

I've done a round wheel for the 370z. I personally think the flat looks better but everyones got their opinion, I know. Either way they all come out gorgeous. The flat is just a little sleeker, sporty looking. Round bottom looks kind bulky.

Any chance you can be UNLIKE all the other vendors and actually post a price? I understand there are different options and variables, but maybe post price of the exact one you have pictured so people have a general idea. Then for other options they can PM.

There is a reason why vendors ask for people to pm for pricing...if you get 4 grand worth or work done on other parts I'm not going to charge the same as someone just with the wheel alone. If you want other material or a special stitch done it will change the price. Anyone SERIOUSLY interested can simply pm me for a price. Sorry but that's just how I do things bro.

Can you thicken (pad) the rim of the wheel in the leather parts? Could you do the opposite parts in CF (sides) and leave the top and bottom leather? Could you make the CF parts a larger diameter to match the thicker rim?

Yes I could do the opposite parts in cf....no I can't make the leather parts thicker. I dont have the padding to do it the right way. I know there are guys that do it but if you were to make the wheel thicker then yes I could make the cf part thicker to match.
