The wheel on my car is looking a little tired..I know there are places which will redo your whole wheel for you but I have had sucess on my other cars by ordering premade wraps and stitching them on myself, like this
The Redline (linked) is not a wrap, it's a complete recovering. Requires removing the steering wheel from the car and then removing the existing cover.
I'll look for a professional to do this when it happens, I ain't messing with the wheel and air bag.

That's right. It is a recovering. I just finished my wheel in a very plain wrap. I kept the diameter close to stock since I have small hands (no political jokes here). So, I pulled the original OEM leather before recovering with the Redline. The side spokes did not seem to be cut asymmetrical which caused a bit of difficulty in finishing the gluing of the wrap but it came out okay at the end.
I fit a wood dowel to the center of wheel and mounted that in a table vice to use as a work platform. You need lots of light for the work.
I worked with user RobinA3 out of the UK. Even considering paying him for a used steering wheel core and shipping to the US prices were still reasonable vs. others and was quite happy with the result.

are you able to wrap withOUT removing the old leather? basically, just wrap and cover it. it will be thicker which what i want.
