Personally I love the Alcântara. The trick is just to wear leather gloves when you drive,whether it’s a leather wheel or Alcântara.
Autodromo makes absolutely the best driving gloves in the world! They are so good I have a pair of them and every car
+1. I got the Alcantara wheel, then got the Autodromo gloves. A great combo.

I recommend the leather wrapped steering wheel. The rest is a matter of opinion and should be your choice..lots of good options

I agree with Ron and Ken! While I don't have the NFGT, I do have the
Autodromo gloves in each of my cars!!! The best!!

I think leather steering wheel is a must IMHO.

Agree with Rocketman, Autodromo makes great gloves

Absolutely best gloves ever. Great product.

Is the Studio edition really limited to only 40? It looks to me like an edition anybody with an allocation can order, even at this point in time?

It is limited to 40 but I doubt there will be 40.

Are people not choosing it?

That's not how I would really put it. There are just a lot of markets and series and a cadence at which they need to be produced by the factory and unless someone is...the rest will have to go in the book. 😅

There are actually some quite cool versions floating around but the program has done nothing to market it.

That looks pretty cool.
Do you know how much they charge for that option?

I can’t remember exactly but I think level 1-2-3 goes $45k, $60k, $90k.

Leather steering wheel For the longest durability and consistent look and belt inserts Because they're nearly impossible to install later on. The rest are cosmetic choices you should make... get what you want..:)

Does anyone have a photo of the factory car cover with embossed VIN? These were in limited supply during my ordering window, so I don't know what they look like. Thanks in advance.

Have fun with your build SPI. I'd second the harness belt anchors even if you don't plan to track.

@SYCO GT - Here is my new one I just purchased from Milliken because it is the updated version for the wing up. The original cover that came with my car was the first version with wing down. The VIN is located on the front driver side fender, somewhat under the side of the headlight. Ford logo on the nose, and GT logo on the rear.

QD32 - Your NFGT cover looks great, thank you for the description and photos! Ah, the wing up re-design must have been why they were absentia for a spell.

I like how the Studio Collections' side graphic enhances the NGT's hips:
