How's the feel compared to standard leather version? (assume you had the leather version before)

Expecting mine to arrive in next day or two..

I can answer. It feels nice and grippy, especially if you're someone with somewhat sweaty hands. Also doesn't burn your hands when it's hot. I also like the flat bottom for leg space and it's a nice place to rest your hand(s). Plus the blue line feels so racey

For DCT, it depends on how you wire the power. you can either retain memory settings and lose shift lights eventually, or lose memory settings and retain shift lights. i'm currently option 1 but am looking to add a switch to quickly power on/off the wheel so i can retain shift light functionality but retain memory settings.

Drove 150 miles in my E92 M3 and marveled at the fact that not one vehicle passed me on the highway the whole trip.

Ran into this article today which had been around back in 2016. Thought I would offer it for anyone who hasn't seen it. Great reading.

I really like it and it was super easy to install. I feel like it's a little thinner than the stock leather. Overall a really nice accent to the car.

I'm having my floor mats lined with the same material around the perimeter as the blue strip in the wheel. Like the ones IND sells but the total cost will be 1/2 the price.

That would make sense as the base coat is Space Grey

Gave her a bath and much needed TLC after 2 months of neglect, after studying and passing my salesforce certification exam!

Tried out Sonax Alcantara cleaner on my wheel and on the speed cloth as well. Recommended!

I too have Speed Cloth interior and the OE Performance Alcantara wheel.

How do you like the Sonax cleaner for both the Alcantara and the speed cloth? TIA.

Sonax works great for both the alcantara and speed cloth. Smells nice too.

I've also used a clothing steamer on my speed cloth seats with great results.
