Awesome. I think I'm sold.

Keep the pics and/or reviews coming!

Does this wheel wear and fall apart? I keep my novillo steering wheel clean religiously with chemical guys...I am not a palm sweater but I'd be out if this wheel chunks off or becomes super matted and hard to hold onto with bare hands.

I also heard some products out there exist to rejuvenate the "fluffiness" of alcantara? Maybe getting the grease and dirt out makes the fibers stand up again?

Chemical Guys Fabric Guard and NONSENsE look to be good products for protecting and cleaning, respectively.

How are you guys cleaning this wheel?

Great looking steering wheel. Anyone have one they are willing to sell?

Not quite the review I was looking for but a review nonetheless.

Contact Phil @ ReevesBMW. He's your man.

Here's mine, it's more on the grey side imo (matches with my bmw performance shift boot and ebrake)

Keep the pics (and reviews) coming. We don't have enough feedback on this mod.

I bought my car with speed cloth and replaced the seats with leather pole positions. I plan on doing the cloth on the doors,rear panels, headliner and pillars in alcantara to match the wheel.

What ya doing with your speed cloth seats? Wanna sell

I personally use Leather Master Alcantara cleaner, but now that Dr. Beasley came out with a similar product I might try them out.

Thanks for the info. Do you use a special brush as well?

Usually a microfiber with very careful pressure.

Understood. Thanks for the info. My PSW arrives this week. I should have it locked and loaded by the weekend

I like my "Christmas Tree" steering wheel...definitely not annoying at all. Don't knock it till you try it.
