          steering wheel with aluminum inserts ?

          Anybody know where i can get the 01' steering wheel for the M5 with aluminum inserts ? I thought it would look cool with the rest of aluminum inside the car. Cecwheels have a similar steering wheel (victor) like im looking for with the inserts but for the e46 3 series though.
          http://www.cecwheels.com/tech_notes/...&type=interior

          It really looks cool. bekkers have a steering wheel with carbon fiber inserts for the 5 series that can be bought with the rest of the carbon fiber interior panels. check it out

          http://www.bekkers.com/details.php3?...re5Series97-01

          Any thoughts anyone ?

          P.S. I think the car would look cool with the carbon fiber trim plus the steering wheel. But the problem with my car is that the interior will look too dark cuz my beast is black/ black!!

          BMW has an aluminium trimmed steering wheel for the E46 M3. They esentially use the same steering wheel but I wonder if it can be fitted to the M5.

          Thanks,

          Yeah i think the M3 steering wheel will fit the M5 for sure. Anyway, can i get this steering wheel you are talking about from any Bmw dealer ? I saw a similar steering with the inserts on a X5! lets see if it fits.

          Yeah, you sould be able to get it at any BMW dealer. If they don't have it, they'll order it for you. The X5's steering wheel is a different design and I think it's larger in diameter. and the M3's steering wheel has aluminium which matches the aluminium trim in the M5 while the X5 has the brighter 'matt chrome' trim.

          I believe Hamann makes one for the beast. I know they do for the E46 application.

          Millie Miglia,

          I just checked Hamaan's website, didn't see the steering wheel you mentioned.
