Default 4 spoke steering wheel to 3 spoke?

Hello gents!

I wonder if itīs possible to change my stock 4 spoke steering wheel into a 3 spoke sports steering wheel?

This is exactly what I have now: http://images.gtcarlot.com/pictures/62851191.jpg

Hereīs two examples of identical 3 spoke steering wheels as the one Iīve found. They seem to have been in both A3īs, A4īs and A6īs:

My car is a 2004 D3 4.2.

Thanks

I changed mine from a standard (I think 4 spoke) to an S8's 3 spoke with paddles. Was simple, the only snag was I had to source an airbag that fitted the new wheel, pronto. (I'd overlooked that bit). I then coded in the paddles with VCDS. Done.
