so i got a parts car and it has a used to be nice momo stearing wheel, but it looks very old and in bad condition. i was wondering if anyone knows any good idea or suggestions on how to repair it, i know a good cleaning would do a lot, but what about the seams bulging and what not?



notice how it looks bad where it meets the metal and all the bulging seams, and cracking where the outer rim meets the posts.

is it worth it to try to fix it?

 

take it and get it reupholstered.

Beat me to the punch line.

 

i was thinking about that, i didnt think places could reupholster a steering wheel though, but i want to get my seats done soon so maybe ill take it with and see what theysay.

any other idea of what i can do myself?

 

Blue coral upholestry cleaner works wonders for me whenever I need to use it. Maybe you wanna look into some of that? I usually pick it up from autozone.

 

hang it on your wall

 

dip it in acid

well hell if i can afford that for a damn steering wheel... not worth it... i think ill go with the reupholstry root... and hope it cost less than a 100

 

not to long ago, i found a place that does reupholstry, but unfortunately they couldnt do suede in 300mm steeringwheel.
