:hahaha:

See Shimmy. He's a dab hand with the masking tape.:smokin:

[mole]

Be interested in the end result, got a spare I might retrim for when mine is (even more) knackered.

[grumps]

I did think about using the yellow nail varnish from my gimp cupboard as apposed to tape as i thought it might crack:blalalala:

[phat///M3]

Look forward to pics, should look good.

This is your new favorite smilies.....

Quite fitting for the man with the GAY pink wheels :gayfight:

[Johnnywb]

Do you mind me asking what the cost and timescale is? I'll need to redo mine shortly, but don't have a spare!

[grumps]

They said about a week turn around and for the basic retrim around 200 squid.:thumbs:

[grumps]

Got my steering wheel back today,1 week turn around! They have done a fantastic job as well and all for just £140 inc vat.:thumbs:
P.s I bottled it with the yellow thingy.

[sailorbaz]

That's top quality mate and a very reasonable price.

I imagine it must be a total cnut to do... I suppose those, like everything with the right tools and experience, it's probably a piece of piss to the pro's!

[Bounce]

Looking good:thumbs:.I could do with mine doing now ive seen yours:drool:

After a nice long r/t i can confirm that the wheel glides through my hands like greased weasel shit! so if anyone wants a re-trim mention the register and call Mike on 07776 135025 (Bristol) top bloke and very helpful.

Good man, many thanks. :thumbs:

[NZ_M3]

Looking good there :thumbs: Interesting though how they could do that in one full piece rather than 4 separate sections ala the OEM item - I actually prefer the one full piece look.

[jibm]

yeah thanks for sharing :thumbs:

will get mine done too.

However, I will miss the scared look on my nabour's face when he caught me shaving my steering wheel :whistle:

Your not a fully paid up CSL owner until you've done that and been accused of going nuts by a bloke leaning over your fence.:hahaha:

Mine is pretty goosed after 60K and gloves while on track so may look into it after i've been to the ring.

Thanks for sharing the info :thumbs:

Looking good, but I was really looking forward to the yellow stripe ala GT3 :banghead:

Anyone get a pic with the yellow stripe? I am going to get mine re-trimmed and fancy the idea of the stripe just be good to see a pic before I go for it!

[DIB17]

I don't need it doing in now - I cleaned the wheel with Raceglaze Alcantara cleaner and it's come up like new! Disgusting how much dirt came out - now lovely and soft again! This is when someone replies with a gay comment!

[sailorbaz]

I started doing mine a couple of months ago but the wee pump packed in halfway through it. How much of the stuff did you use to clean the whole wheel? I wasn't using too much but was tempted to soak the thing. It's still not at it's best even now after a wee 'half clean'.

[DIB17]

I gave the wheel a good soaking, left for a min or so then gently rubbed with a microfibre cloth - probably used around a 1/6 of the bottle and didn't get any bobbling. Did the handbrake and SMG knob as well.:thumbs:

[Craig]

May I suggest a red stripe on a BMW, I think it always looks better and fits in with the M colours.
