AKA
its an advert for them selling steering wheels more than genuine video.

Willay and Ian both have some OMP copy, not sure where they bought from but neither have complained about them bending or being dangerous and both have been in use for a few years.

McGill Motorsports supply most of the stuff to the stock car/autograss guys around here and probably the UK. I wouldn't have an issue fitting 1 of there steering wheels, regardless of how cheap it was.

if you pause the video when they have a close up of it you can tell they have heated it up or something before hand as the paints all cracked on the bottom part of the steering wheel and on the right its reddish/brown and all cracked, a very fair test
