I will open up to the peanut gallery again for feedback and opinions...

It's smooth leather and suede with Red stitching...

I don't hate it, but also don't love it. But if you like it, then that's what counts.

Since you asked, it reminds me of the steering wheel cover I bought for my 1961 Ford Falcon. Nicer but....not sure why a leather cover is needed for a leather wrapped steering wheel.

I'm on the fence. Might like it more if the stitching just ran along the outer edge of the steering wheel. Looks like very nice quality though.

Looks like a good quality product. I don't have any strong feelings about it, but I would say it makes the steering wheel look fat. How's it feel?

I came from more sportier vehicles hence me wanting a fatter steering wheel. It feels good from my perspective. I just needed a lil more sportiness...

Thanks.

BTW, you made the right choice my man. Material things comes and goes... Get your education and career inline and everything else will fall into place. Best of luck and thank you for all of your help...

I appreciate it, but I'm not sacrificing too much. As soon as the dealer gets the papers together, a lesser but satisfying replacement awaits. Even though I'm stepping away from Audi, I'll still hang around here. After all, I don't want to be out of the loop when I'm officially back in the fold.

I'll move this discussion over to my own thread, to avoid hijacking this one.
