Anyone know of any places in the Baton Rouge area that re-wraps steering wheels? My steering wheel needs a tune up. New one from the manufacturer is over $1K and they insist on installing a new air bag adding to the cost. Covers can be purchased online I know but not sure my skill set would do a satisfactory job on that.

Not sure if this is a subtle brag or douchiness. Will monitor thread for further developments.

What kind of car? I bought one for my F150 on Ebay super cheap.

Also, check with Mike over at Tops Unlimited near Siegen. He can hook that up.

Just leave it unlocked with the keys in it out in front of a gas station. Problem solved.

Honestly, i have a leather wrapped steering wheel but i put a $17 grippy steering wheel cover from Amazon, same look and color as the gray leather steering wheel itself, not anything gaudy- on it and it looks and feels better IMO .

I thought they typically had Alcanterra covered wheels in OT baller “winner” cars.

Go to Wheel Skins and order a wrap. They're not that difficult to put on, plus you get the benefit of having accomplished a job well done.

I know a couple of guys that can do it for about £20 quid!

There’s a leather guy on Antioch that does it. He does seats and everything
