Somebody local has offered me an OMP steering wheel for a decent price.

I've had a look online and can't find the same wheel anywhere.
I obviously don't want to buy it if its a fake and stickered up, so if anybody can confirm either way or shed some light that'd be brilliant.

That's the only picture sorry.
I've tried looking for older versions of wheels incase it's that's the case, but can't see any.

im suspicious about it as the line on the top of the wheel doesn't look like its in the middle unless its the picture but im pretty sure omp would have stitched it in the right place

I've just found this on Google, by the looks of it it's saying it's an 04 Velocita model.

On the back it will say 'made in Italy' in small print. The fakes ive seen dont.

I bottled it, didn't fancy taking the risk.
I've sorted another wheel out.

Cheers guys.
