is it possible to upgrade from a 2 spoke wheel to a 3 spoke ? i am not bothered about the MFSW buttons, just the 3 spoke looks better...

any info would be appreciated :]

Do you mean when your ordering your car? If so then yes.

no, after i get it... my car's been built already.

Shouldn't be a problem, but it might be costly because of the dealers time. You can do it on the 1st gen no problem if you know what you're doing.

I asked my dealer about this and was quoted between £600-£700 for a dealer to fit! Needless to say I still have the 2 spoke, thats just silly money.

i guess you have to buy the airbag as well or is the 2 spoke one the same ?

You may wanna check it will affect your warranty if you plan to do it yourself....

If horse racing is the sport of Kings, should drag racing be the sport of Queens?
