Thanks for the update. I have looked at the Nardi Classico. It is more attractive in my opinion and the design is more in keeping with the CS than the Momo. It is also quite a bit more money as you correctly point out.

I just talked with Carl at CNPR (bimmerdoc.com) and he says that the Momo Grand Prix is darker than the dash wood on a coupe. That's hard to imagine from looking at the pictures on the web site ... He said even the Nardi wheel is a bit darker.

I found Nardi wheels at http://www.sportscar-parts.com/steerw.html They are neat looking also, but the cheapest one is $310+$90 for the hub.

They also have the Momo Grand Prix for $20 more than CNPR is charging this month.

cheers,
bruce

Bruce:

I have seen the wheels, and I prefer the wood one as well. I would be very interested in hearing from you after you speak with just BMW about the matching and appearance. Marilyn is suggesting a wheel called Nardi as well.

Have you seen the December specials page at www.bimmerdoc.com? They have Momo steering wheels - I'm leaning towards the wood rimmed one provided the wood somewhat matches the dash wood (I'm going to call them about this).

cheers,

Does anyone have any thoughts on what might be the nicest after-market steering wheel for the CS. I find the original a little too large and would appreciate comments on what fits and looks good.

Thank you
