Default Changing steering wheel trims

Mine are shabby (100k miles and plenty of hard gripping )

Black marks which I guess are where the titian silver paint is coming off.

What are my options.

New

Respray.

Wrap.



Ignore

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

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
