Steering Wheel Suede Re-wrap (Bay Area)

[Kristeun]

Anyone know where I could get my M tech wheel re-wrapped in Alcantra suede in SF, Bay Area? And anyone know around how much it's going to cost me?

good question, id like to know as well.

check the group buy section...

someone is selling custom steering wheels covers (some of which are in alcantara..)

might be something you'd be interested in

[Kristeun]

I don't want a cover, especially of that quality. Thanks for the suggestion though.

oooo, i like the red suede mtech1 wheel....

he/they make really nice period correct stuff. its expensive but they are the only place i know of that makes some of the m5 stuff properly. for interior shit that you look at or touch everyday, it pays to do it right.

Great link. Do you have any experience with their steering wheel rewrap? In particular, does it conform to the ergonomic "finger nibs" on the back of the wheel? The leather on my MtechI wheel is starting to look pretty shabby, especially compared to my brand new E30M3 one piece shift knob/boot, and those golf club handle wrap bullshits just won't do.

Nothing local huh? I really don't want to ship off my only steering wheel for weeks.

i spoke with alan gun yesterday and he seem to be the real deal. he also said he would mail me a loaner wheel while mine is gone getting rewrapped. he def charges a lot to rewrap though, but his work seems top knotch.

You could go to pick n pull and get a spare for cheap.

[Kristeun]

^Yea I think i'll do that since I was planning on going next week anyways.

I used a suede kit from them for my 3 spoke sport wheel, about 2 years ago.
It took me about 6 hours, on and off to stitch it up, but it wasn't too hard. It looked good when I was done.

[Kristeun]

Would you recommend it if you have no fabric/stitching experience?

Edit: And I see the wheel kit for my steering wheel but how do you order the kit in black suede?
