Is anyone selling a facelift steering wheel or does anyone know where I can get one?
I am looking at a couple of cars with Alcantara Wheels and I really don't like them.

Has anyone exchanged their steering wheel or bought a flar bottomed one or similar?

Send it off to Royal for a retrim for under £200

Who are royal? Retrim is probably the most sensible / economical idea but I was hoping for a total overhaul and perhaps a flat bottom and a bit of carbon fibre (don't judge me..)

Do they do the rubber bit? Mines quite worn on the right of the steering wheel.
Obviously the previous owners drove it one handed like I do.

Or you can get your hands on either a GS steering wheel or a carbon pack 3200 or 4200 steering wheel. Its probably the best upgrade i have made so far.

I still have my old 4200 facelift steering wheel as well.

Personally I prefer the 4200 carbon pack wheel as it's carbon at the bottom as well.

I think that looks great, massive difference...

I would need one for a GTS though. Dealer quoted 2200 for a facelift carbon wheel...didn't really want to go that high, and can't find one on ebay.

Here you go. But remember you have duty and vat to pay on top of the purchase price. Duty is around 5% iirc of the purchase price including shipping. Then you have vat at 20% on the purchase price including duty and shipping.

Could I fit a new chubbier style facelift steering wheel to my 2009 car? Is it a straight swap ?

As far as i know its a straight swap but you could always ask your local indy or dealer to confirm. As far as i know its the same fitting on the QP And GT
