I want to get a new steering wheel for my Tam, I have seen that most opt for the Momo Trek R but I want a bit of yellow and Alcantra in mine so would go for the normal momo trek.

However I have seen the Momo Gt50, has anyone seen this on a Tamora and would it even look right? I would like people's opinions?

Not for me - just my opinion as you asked.

I like the original wheel so tend not to like alternatives as much?

Not for me I must admit. I prefer the Trek R, but if you like the way it looks go for it!

Don't fancy "Momo" plastered everywhere. I find the Trek R fine but if you want Alcantara: I'd retrim 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock which are the bits you grip, leaving the 6 6 o'clock in leather as it gets slightly worn by your legs sliding under it. Then you could mark straight ahead with a stripe of yellow?

I decided to go for this wheel as I really like it, it adds a bit more yellow to match brakes and new engine paint job and wanted to stand out from the crowd smile

Looks nice!

Agree with the comment about the Momo being so prominent, but not sure how you can hide it
without seeing it more in the flesh.

I had it powder coated, TVR101 got it sorted for me.

I also agree with the momo badge, I need to find a TVR sticker that I can attach over the momo badge.
