Looks quality, I shall be considering this for the furture.

Just wondering though, can you/ could you re-trim the stock gearknob? Or have you not tried that before?

Cheers

Any chance you could do a re-trim on my cream leather wheel on my Lincoln Navigator? All the cream colour has come off and its looks bogging! I'll see if I can find a picture...

Hi all,

Thought I'd share my experience of using this service. For anyone unsure whether to go for this or not, I can confirm the quality of the leather and Robin's workmanship is top class, I absolutely cannot fault the work. If you never seen an S2000 and look inside you'd assume it's part of the car. The leather texture has a similar feel to brand new BMW M Sport steering wheels which I used to drive around for company cars (the Honda wheel is just slightly thinner). Definitely adds a nice touch of luxury feel to the car. I've used it for about a week so can't really comment on durability but it def looks very well made.

Thought I'd share some pictures aswell but they're only taken from my camera phone so advanced apologies for low quality.

DM I only do steering wheels sorry.

Due to a shortage of time outside of work I am currently struggling to do steering wheel retrims so I can't consider doing other parts of the car.

I also have just received a wheel back retrimmed with a combination of perforated and plain leather with black stitching and must say it looks really great.

Thoroughly recommend this service. I actually bought a spare wheel so I could always use the car so once swapped over I will probably get the old wheel retrimmed and advertise for a much higher price as definitely worth it (only joking but can supply a spare wheel so you can take advantage of this service).
