That and I'm tired of the stock 2017 texture being slippery as hell. Why on earth did they change it from the old perforated-like texture in the zenki models?

Really liking the grip, so much better than OEM. The section you grip is thicker and grippier material. The flat bottom shape has a nice feel to it too. Everything seems to work, not sure if I've pressed absolutely every button yet but I've used most of them. Neal swapped everything over from the OEM wheel and it's perfect so far.

EDIT: Also, just a heads up for anyone looking to buy it. Took about 1 month from when I placed the order to receive the steering wheel. Must have been made to order, shipped out of Japan and shipping was only 3 days so seems to have been a production delay.
Looks awesome! I really would love to replace the 2017 wheel.. I hate how slippery it is. It's just hard to stomach the price, haha.

Definitely looks like a nice quality steering wheel, though.
