Just picked a 03 cobra black steering wheel up on ebay for 60 bucks. My steering wheel was pretty bad, all torn and worn. I really need to chill out on parts for a month or week or maybe a day. Could have gotten another mod but bought my mother a new dishwasher and garbage disposal instead. I like to make my mom happy, than my car.

I like to make your mom happy too.

On a serious note, nice pick up. I want an FR500 wheel!

This is . All your guys threads about your new parts that you just bought makes me want to . I cant even touch my car for another 8 to 9 months. You people are killing me. God I miss my car. End rant.

On a serious note nice pick up the fr500 wheel isnt really that much more and is what I will probably be going with.

I have an Fr500 wheel on my car and I think its HUGE improvment over the stock wheel. To me anyways

Not that much more its over 200 on americanmuscle, to pricey for a steering wheel for me.

An 03/04 Cobra steering wheel is not a FR500. The FR500 has a thicker grip area and different leather. Its that padded leather with holes in it

Is your mom hawt? If so id like to make her happy too
