Yes the 997.1 multifunction wheel can be made 5mm thicker...We have done a few of these!

 

We could do a a 997.2 wheel with a carbon top, but we do not use alcantara. We use suede, because we feel that it is a much better material. As for the shift paddles, we could probably laminate them in carbon, but we have not yet done a set.
Our 997.2 thick wheel is about 5mm thicker that the stock wheel. I am not sure how that compares to the TechArt wheel, but it feels very nice IMO.

 

Black suede looks much darker than my black leather on the photos. And I am not sure how would a gray suede would look on my car. That's why I asked about alcantara. What do you think?

And is there any way for you to be certain that you can do shif paddles in carbon, I'm gonna purchase a new wheel if you can?

I agree that our black suede is much darker than the factory or our black leather. Our grey suede is a tad lighter than the factory alcantara, but it blends in very well and looks really good. Below is a picture of a grey suede wheel we did for a 2008 GT2. It looks and feels amazing!


As for doing the paddles, I will find out for you next week. I am planning on getting my hands on a paddle equiped wheel and I should have an answer for you by the end of next week.

Thanks,

Lane,

Thanks for the photo. This GT2 does have a black interior, not a gray one, right?

Also waiting for your feedback about the paddles.

Thanks!

 

Yes, the GT2 in the picture above has a black interior.

I'll get you some info on the paddles this week.

Thanks,
Lane

 

Great work. Do you do S8 steering wheel? I am thinking carbon top, alcantara sides and leather bottom.

 

Sick work Lanes. But you already know that

 

Thank you for the info Lane. I'll be waiting.

We have never done an S8 wheel but it could be done. PM me your email and I can get you a quote.

Thanks,
Lane
