Been looking forever...Finally found

I had been looking for this Limited edition (1K made) OMP Ralliart steering wheel for a long time, The wheel commemorates Tommi Makinen's WRC championships...Most of the times they pop up they are extremely expensive. Well I found one on line and just paid for it, More pics when it arrives. Worthless thread but I'm pumped and jacked!



Another pic I found:

It's just a steering wheel to those who don't know about or appreciate Mitsu's real motorsports history. Tommi Makinen is one of the major contributing factors to why I fell in love with Evo's in the first place. It is just a steering wheel but it does have some sentimental value....I'm probably going to put it in the car though, with a Nardi on stand by.

I say put it in man, it'll be a nice token to show your love for him, a unique way to honor him without putting decals on anything, especially for those who know the value, not just monetary, of this piece.. great find!
