Elevate Your Drive with Premium Carbon Fiber Customisation

Mercedes owners know one thing — a great car deserves a great interior. And in 2025, the most popular upgrade for Mercedes drivers is a custom carbon fiber steering wheel. It transforms the feel, the look, and the driving experience instantly.

If you want sharper handling, a sportier design, and a truly personalised cockpit, here are the top Mercedes steering wheel upgrades you should consider this year.


1. Carbon Fiber Top & Bottom — The Ultimate Sporty Look
