Question Re-trim

Hello all. Good to be back. Anyone had a steering wheel re-trim done ?
If so who did it, how much and what sort of quality was the job ?
Shaved it ( the wheel that is ) last year but it really needs a proper refresh. Cheers, Sticky.

P.S. Who said the gruppem titanium was loud, it barely raises any eyebrows in the village at all.

Mine is held together with gaffer tape currently.
We should start a round robin where we keep the trim but send off the wheel for refurb after receiving a refined one form the guy before.

It's Damn loud isn't it? Lovely on full song, but bimbling about it was a bit much for me personally. Lesa still loves and swears by hers,

Had mine done at Royal steering wheels 6 months ago
Looked brand new and still does, I was a bit concerned it wouldn't be stitched as well or would tarnish quicker with use, but it hasn't.
Service could be slightly be better, said it would take 10 days and it took about 3 weeks, but I borrowed a wheel from Jack, so wasn't a problem.
Can't remember what I paid
