glad to see some feedback was curious to it's quality. I'm interested their 356 wheel and am always curious as to the flex of a repro wheel my experience with the banjo style repro wheel was that it had too much flex and being a sports car I don't want to sacrfice this, thanks for you input |

Thought I'd leave some more positive feedback for Chung/MSW!
My 356 repro steering wheel was delivered yesterday. The quality, fit, and finish are amazing! I asked for a black half horn ring even though I did not see them offered in that finish and they were happy to do it for me (and that combo looks soooo good ). The turn around time was faster than I expected, and shipping only took 3 days.
I highly recommend MSW to anyone who is considering them!

Some more positive feedback for Chung and MSW, aka My Steering Wheel. I picked up a 400mm VDM repro for my 66 Ghia. The quality and finish is outstanding, and the wheel has a nice weighted feel to it. Admittedly, Chung was not able to supply the wheel with the Wolfsburg horn button cover that I wanted, so he supplied the horn button base and gave me instructions on how to make the horn button cover from another aftermarket horn button.
I think it turned out amazing, and looks perfect in my Ghia. My favorite part, unlike the other repros of this wheel that are on the market, is that it is only 400mm - the perfect size! The other repro manufacturers are making them in the original 420mm size, which IMO is too big for a Ghia. Also, some of the other repros use horn buttons that don't look remotely original (Aircooled Accessories, for example). MSW's horn button is spot on to the original. If I ever do another Ghia restoration, I'd buy this wheel again.
