^^^Very nice. I thought I was done with modding a LONG time ago but I think you guys are going to hurt me 
with these Techart wheel pictures.
How is the feel of the perforated leather? How is the padding? Nice and perfect softness/firmness?

The padding is firm in my opinion. Thicker wheel gives a feeling of more control.

Some replies.
Bought steering wheel over Ebay for cheap from a private seller.
New airbag from a German company also through Ebay.
Total cost less than 1000 euro.
Steering wheel was a PDK type so removed flippers. Did the install myself.
You do need to activate the horn over Piwis. My Porsche dealer did it for free, took him less than 2 minutes. Hook op computer, activate 'MF steering' and horn works. People who have a MF steering wheel today need no programming, just install the wheel and done.
Sport steering wheel II comes extra thick from factory. They all come like this.
Not 'tuner' thick like f.ex. Techart but just perfect !
M coupe , I think a black steering wheels works with the carrera red interior !
You should add a black gear lever and handbrake and everything will look factory.

Aren't you then losing the airbag? Not sure that is legal or a good idea on a street car.

Same here. Lovin it 
Makes the car a lot "younger" from the inside and the thicker wheel is better to handle as well.
Where did you get the bucket seats / what seats are those?
