        I wouldn't wrap IMO, did Tom not get the paint code? Paint for me if you get a match

          Won't wrap...rather look at the old paint.

          Possible carbon ala MarkCSl

            The paint on it isn't hard to match. Actually I've been meaning to go and get a spray can done up for it ... might do that tomorrow if I can get away.

            I also have a set wrapped in Alcantara ... quite like it and no worries about paint rubbing off - nice and soft if you have to hang onto it during hard cornering :wink:

            See below:
            So I had a spare steering wheel trim that was a bit beat up, so thought I'd give it a bit of DIY treatment ... Genuine Alcantara!! Probably not to everyone's liking ... but meh .. :hahaha::birdman: I think it looks good :supz:

                surely based on Toms paint advice someone here can start a production line. Just need one spare set (infact why not do a steering wheel refurb service
