Well based on the pictures I would say his work is tops! I am expecting the wheel maybe late next week.
I will take some additional pictures as well before the install.

If you are looking for floor mats with yellow stitching LLOYDS matts did mine with orange stitching they came out great I will post a picture later of the mats

Working with Tomas at Guardian Designs was great! Steering wheel looks awesome and I cannot wait to see it in person! I opted for a flat bottom steering wheel with perforated leather on the sides and smooth leather on the top and bottom.

That is the exact wheel I want!
Problem is I sent them a web-form enquiry two weeks ago and a follow up three days ago and zero response to either.
Maybe they are on a break?

Can't wait to receive it and have it installed. As soon as the delivery date shows up I am going to setup an appointment for installation.
I will post pictures of the wheel installed as well.

I have to say Tomas at Guardian Design was great. Very responsive to questions and actually kept me informed of status along the way.
If you decide to order from them don't be afraid to ask about things you may want or have concerns about. They are will accommodate you
and any concerns you may have, that was my experience.
Short of the Wheel not showing up as pictured or not showing up at all......which is not likely to happen. I would say use Guardian Design for
your steering wheel needs. Thank you Tomas and Guardian Design!



I had my new wheel from Guardian Design installed a couple of weeks ago. Here are some pictures both before and after.

I would like to reiterate that Guardian Design does top quality workmanship! They also have great customer support.
I never waited more then an hour to receive a response back to any question I had during the sale process or after sale questions.

The look and feel of the wheel is far superior to the factory wheel. It is how these car should be if you ask me.

I also think the way Guardian does their magic and the materials they use leaves your hand less fatigued after a drive.
Its a very comfortable wheel.

The saying you get what you pay for is true. Guardian wheel's you get more for your money. Outstanding value!

Thank you to Tomas and the team at Guardian for your commitment to quality, customer support and value!

Is removal/install a DIY thing? Since this isn't my every day car I'd be willing to send them my actual wheel and just not drive the car for a few weeks rather than pay for a new wheel and then have two.

Nice! I've been wondering what a white center stripe would look like, and now we have two different examples...

Are both stripes in alcantara or is one of them in leather?

The stripe is leather on mine. Alcantara middle only for the grip. Perforated top and bottom.

Mine came back with orange / bronze paddles, swapped those plus the bottom middle plate with the ones previously on my SVR wheel.

Thanks so much for sharing your pictures and feedback! We strive to make our wheels perfect and really appreciate your kind words.
I couldn't find out how to ask via private messaging ... Maybe it's disabled for new users? Anyway, I would like to know if I can share your pictures on our Instagram!

Hi, we have some colors available in Alcantara too, like red, yellow and blue. Others may be available at an extra cost.
Get in touch when you're ready and let us know what you would like.

Yep, it can be done by yourself.
You can send in your wheel in advance if you wish, it's also possible to return it after you got your new wheel.
