Bit of DIY on a spare steering wheel

NZ_M3 · 26-09-2009, 11:45 AM

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 ..

I think it looks good

I think it looks good. Don't like original finish there though.

Installed

(I know the alcantara colour looks a little different between the steering wheel and the trim, but that's because the steering wheel is a different one to the one pictured above - this is my used 'driving' steering wheel, so it's a bit worn and beaten up)
