Installed Carbon Fiber Elements Custom Steering Wheel
 
1 Attachment(s)
I did very little to the interior of the 2009 Nismo I owned several years ago except for the Red GTR Start Button. However, now that the interior is 9 years older since this car was released I felt it could use some refreshing. Don't get me wrong I still think the Z interior is sporty. That said, manufacturers have come a long way in the last decade and the car felt a little behind in that department since I picked my 2011 up.

So of course I did the Red GTR Start Button first but wanted to update the steering wheel and seats as well. Researching Steering Wheels I fell in love with the customization options that Carbon Fiber Elements offered so I placed a deposit several weeks back. I was impressed with the level of customer service and communication all the way through the process. He sent picture updates through completion of my custom wheel.

I was excited to receive and blown away once I installed (very easy ~30 minutes and probably could do in 15 minutes now that I have done it). I thought I would share for everyone to see.

You have to remove airbag during installation yes. But again there is a great DIY put together already for steering wheel removal and I used that. Very easy to do and you disconnect the battery prior to install.

I've got a carbon fiber element wheel identical to yours. I love it. Quality worksmanship. And you're right, super easy install. Congratulations on your new wheel.
