With that sort of craftsmanship, I'd think that wheel was off something like a Rolls Royce. Especially with the care and precision used to insert the steering wheel hub assembly.

Same here. I thought maybe just the "core" of the wheel was an ugly POS and the cool stuff was coming. But the only thing that came was a hammer. haha
