Retrimmed leather steering wheel!

Post by fattail95 »

Jack @RoyalSteeringWheels retrimmed my horrible plastic standard semi-mux wheel, so I thought I'd post a few pics up! Perforated leather at the sides and nappa smooth leather on the top and bottom, as requested :D

Before:

After:

Will post some more pics up once its fitted :)

I know! Very impressed, Jack did an awesome job - looks as good as (if not better!) than OEM.

Its so nice to hold, and so much better looking than the plastic! I should have done it sooner, I mean the steering wheel is the one thing you use MOST in a car, so it makes sense to have it looking and feeling fantastic.
