    Anyone know we're to find the carbon fiber trim kit for a 2006 multi-function steering wheel? The JCW one specifically? Seems the 2nd gen is available, but hard to now find for the first gen? Any help is appriciated :biggrin5:

    I would check with Aaron at Outmotoring. If it isn't on his website, give him a call.

    I don't think it is available because I have been looking for years. Let me know if you find them.

    I have the two side CF solid parts I was going to Dremel and make my own custom set someday.

    Thought about that too....like we say at the shop, "every mod requires a mod" :Thumbsup: Do you happen to know if just the bottom piece will work?

    So emailed CARBONMINI, they dont make the kit for the first gen. steering wheel. They said they would produce more 1st gen stuff if more people asked.
